🦉🧪🌎 New from @baynature.org Are Vagrant Birds Lost, or Pioneers? Vagrants (birds that show up outside their normal geographic range) are notoriously difficult to study. The Farallon Islands are one of the few places that attract enough birds for scientists to even try. Learn more: shorturl.at/ADygA

Decommissioned offshore O&G projects leave behind pipelines & other materials shedding microplastics into the ocean. On the UK continental shelf alone, scientists estimate the abandoned equipment generates around 500 metric tons of microplastics each year. 🌎🧪 www.sciencealert.com/abandoned-oi...

Abandoned Oil And Gas Pipes Are Still Contributing TONS of Microplastics Into The Ocean Each Year
Decades after offshore oil and gas projects are decommissioned, the underwater pipelines that are left behind continue to shed microplastics into the ocean.

Up at Cruagh Woods at the outskirts of Dublin. This tree went over in a storm several years ago but still continues to show some growth every year. #Hiking #Photography #ForestFriday #Forest #Trees #Woodland #Woods #EastCoastKin #Ireland
A image of a fallen tree in the woods on a disused hiking path. Part of the downed tree is covered in bright green moss and new growth from the remaining trunk can be seen with leaves turning to Autumn orange as the season starts to change.

Did u know?Living with a badger sett in our garden means ensuring they have plenty of forage,to ensure they do minimal digging in our veg beds.They have lots of food in the form of earthworms in our compost heap & amphibians in our ponds,which means we live alongside each other as one family.🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🦡

Formula 1 has pledged to hit net-zero emissions by 2030 and the wild part is, building cleaner race cars may be the easy part 🏎️🌍 The bigger problem is all the flights, shipping and travel needed to move F1 around the world. The debate sstarts being about what counts as “zero” emissions.
