‘Half the tree of life’: ecologists’ horror as nature reserves are emptied of insects
A new point in history has been reached, entomologists say, as climate-led species’ collapse moves up the food chain even in supposedly protected regions free of pesticides

A lot of us are *extremely* worried about pesticides. But the point is: mass insect die-off is now happening due to climate breakdown, even where pesticides aren't a factor. Nature is being attacked on just about every front there is, and needs *every last one* of us to step up in its defence.

I am proud to be a (non-celebrity!) signatory to the #TakingThePip letter sent to Starmer and the government. We “demand that the government withdraw its inhumane and catastrophic plans to cut disability benefits.” This is nothing less than “cruelty by policy.” tinyurl.com/3cmv43a9
Screenshot of a Guardian article headlined: “Disabled celebrities urge Keir Starmer to scrap ‘inhumane’ benefit cuts.” Subheading reads: “Exclusive: More than 100 people including Liz Carr and Rosie Jones sign letter criticising PIP and universal credit changes.” The image includes headshots of four disabled public figures: Liz Carr, Rose Ayling-Ellis, Rosie Jones, and another woman with long dark curly hair, against various backgrounds.

Over the last 50yrs, we have been sold the LIE that we are unable to afford the most fundamental basics of society: - road maintenance - clean water - public transport systems - a postal network This is so public money can be siphoned off through goverment contracts & subsidies into private hands.

Look how effectively, creatively even, our beautiful, blue-green, planet is being torn apart. Ecosystems that have likely taken millions of years to develop, all gone in an instant, at inconceivable scale, relentlessly. No words can come close to describing the horror of it.

14,000 babies could die in 48 hours without aid. That’s the warning from the UN. This is genocide in real time and Keir Starmer's government is complicit. Still arming Israel and running surveillance flights. No sanctions or expulsion of the Israeli Ambassador. Shame on them.

Given that we’re a nation of nature lovers, whose conservation charities are among the world's biggest membership organisations, Keir Starmer’s repeated attacks on voters who want to protect the living planet, calling us “time-wasting nimbys”, “blockers” and “zealots”, is frankly idiotic.
