Only 3% of our wildflower meadows are left. RT if you agree we should give pollinating insects a fighting chance by growing wildflowers in our gardens, communities, towns and countryside, and by avoiding pesticides and weedkillers 🐝

Building resilience to the climate risks we can no longer avoid is essential. As the floods, wildfires and heatwaves just this week underscore, though, it's no substitute for urgently cutting emissions. We cannot adapt our way out of the climate crisis. theguardian.com/environment/…

Weekend reading: Nikolaj Schultz’s Land Sickness. A contemplative, fictionalized travelogue based on Schultz’s experiences of trying to grapple with life in the Anthropocene. From personal responsibility to existential questions about freedom, this is a compelling read. #climate
