Minimise your #foodwaste and help the environment. Before reaching our plates, food needs to be produced, processed, packaged, transported and distributed. Every step uses up resources and generates more #waste and #pollution.​ Check #EEAinfographic goo.gl/VgDmDL

The Environment Agency has been working with partners to remove physical obstructions in rivers and to construct eel passes to help boost numbers - 5,000km of rivers are now more #eel friendly. Great to see our @EnvAgencySW team out and about seeing the benefits of this work. teapaw.org/EnvAgencySW/status/101…

Look what we caught while surveying in Dartmoor! An eel half a metre long. Good size for the Cherry Brook. Plenty of salmon and trout, too.
