At the end of my working week, I’ve managed to get a 100 minute #beachclean done at Porlock Weir for #EarthDay22 although every day is just as important 🌍 @SevernEstuary @KeepBritainTidy @LFCSSomerset

A huge thank-you to everyone who came along & helped with the #PlasticFreeExmoor Blue Anchor to #Dunster Beach Clean today. Lots of marine debris & litter removed from the beach & the @steamcoasttrail. @LFCSSomerset @SevernEstuary @beachcomber50 @KeepBritainTidy @SomersetWT

My typical greeting at a combined sewer overflow underwater. State of UK rivers is appalling, These areas should be nurtured and protected they are invaluable and rivers underwater are amazing. #freshwaterfish #nature #wildlife #pollution #environment #rivers #underwater

This is how we are treating this world!
🇨🇱 Images from the Atacama desert, which has become a dumpster for the global fast fashion industry. Over 100,000 tons of clothing, many of them new items with price tags that weren't sold or used, have been dumped in the Atacama desert in Chile.

Got lots of Christmas cards? Why not save them to cut up and use as gift tags next year? Re-using things you already have is a great step to a greener Christmas ♻️ @PlasticFreWsom @LFCSSomerset @ActionSomerset #EcoChristmas

Be prepared ... to eat better, by planning for Christmas leftovers, from what you can freeze through to recipes to create new meals and snacks, such as BBC Good Food's creamy sprout, hazelnut & leek pasta: buff.ly/3ETJiur More festive tips: buff.ly/3oKD4Yj

A lovely idea for plastic-free table decorations for Christmas from @SomersetWT!🌿
Why not use natural table decorations for an #EcoChristmas this year? Pinecones, holly leaves, mistletoe & more can look fantastically festive, but remember to only take a very small amount & leave plenty for wildlife! @PlasticFreWsom @LFCSSomerset @SNatureConnect @SWTwellbeing
