Thank you
@vlboult
@BritishEcolSoc
@RMetS
for this inspired event bringing climate scientists and ecologists together to share ideas and work more collaboratively. This is what we need!
#Clim4Ecol
@BAS_News
This mornings session has showed the various ways in which climate forecasts can be used to inform pest control, early warning signals for conservation efforts (

If you know a dyslexic child who has to go through SATS tests this week, please be their champion and remind them of their super powers. These tests were not designed with them in mind
