SS15 wildlife watching

This blog was set up in mid-March 2020 during the emerging COVID-19 health crisis in the UK. It initially aimed to provide records of wildlife sightings and photographs from sites within walking distance of my home in the SS15 postcode area of Basildon in Essex during lockdown travel restrictions. Even though the pandemic has largely subsided, this blog continues to include my local wildlife sightings, my trips away from home plus some personal thoughts and reflections on other issues.

Climate breakdown made UK heatwave 10 times more likely

For pity’s sake, what more evidence is government waiting for before it finally starts treating #climatebreakdown as emergency? We risk going down in history as species that spent its time monitoring its own extinction rather than taking steps to avert it https://t.co/WE9uez9fhq
