Excited by @futuregencymru new strategy. Process for its development felt inclusive, it captures scale & pace of change still needed to secure well-being for future generations & identifies key issues causing implementation gap. Well done to the team. Feeling inspired #cymrucan
Today I am pleased to launch my strategy for my time as Future Generations Commissioner for Wales. Diolch, thank you to everyone who has contributed their thoughts and ideas. #CymruCan act today for a better tomorrow!

Spraying tonight, just four days after harvesting Maze. Why? And this just runs off the fields and into the river. Plus, the birds will be eating the maze bits tomorrow. NFU state 'Farmers are custodians of our land'. #Pollution #savethewye

These people ignored the signs and the volunteers telling them seals shouldn’t be disturbed and carried on to explore this special place for breeding seals. @PembsCoast @NatResWales @Pembrokeshire @cornwallsealGRT

If you’re swimming at Mwnt please don’t let your kids swim in the fresh water inlet lagoon at the bottom of the steps. There were kiddies playing in this today. IT’s not clean, the water looks like dirty washing up water and the foam is thick and crusty like meringue. @DwrCymru

Great overview of the issues facing Welsh rivers and sea with a solid assessment of the authorities’ roles in this. Also shows the growing movement of people across Wales who are demanding better @derekwalker_ worth a watch. Thank you @S4CDysguCymraeg for good journalism in Wales

Guess what? This week we surpassed 10,000 water samples. That’s how many samples we’ve taken and tested since 2021. Our citizen scientists are a force to be reckoned with, gathering crucial data about the state of the River Wye and its tributaries. River guardians in action.

Working through the @NatResWales new “Corporate Plan” What will it actually deliver? Struggling to find accountable outcomes, plenty of platitudes. Social Justice (subjective) & Environmental Recovery (Objective) are divisable and not two sides of the same coin - discuss.

Avara control >20% of UK poultry production - 4.5m chickens/week & report growth in turnover of 5.8% to £1.2 billion for yr ending May 22. Its directors received £2m. Avara owns 3/4 of >20m chickens in Wye catchment which is close to ecological collapse sustainweb.org/news/may23-in…

“What could possibly go wrong?” you rhetorically ask. Interesting voices, albeit narrow but not an gram of accountability to deliver anything. Folk living in the wash of a crisis.
All the answers within agriculture sitting at a single table. Almost unbelievable. @blackgull @clamidlands @theladyfarmer @johanntasker @MPGeorgeEustice What could possibly go wrong? #farmersweekly

Anglian Water has been found guilty of polluting the environment 5 times in the last 2 years, fined a total £4,328,690. Calls are now being made for water companies to pay compensation to local communities and businesses. Sounds like a good idea to me. edp24.co.uk/news/23494002.ca…

Joe, you get it, well mostly. But the dire state of my home river (& others) the @river_usk a SAC / SSSI is as much as I want to say sewage @DwrCymru but is in fact mostly Agriculture. @NatResWales @WGRural @WGClimateChange talk a poor game but do nothing. Farming is in 🙈🙉🙊
A dystopian vision of the British countryside I most certainly don’t recognise. It might be suggested the subject of the interview has a particular incentive to talk down the good environmental work that most British farmers do 365 days a year - whilst providing food.

It was always going to happen. Intensive rearing & releasing of millions of non-native species has to stop @DefraGovUK @WelshGovernment @NatResWales
Highly pathogenic bird flu confirmed in pheasants at Bettws Hall - 'Europe's leading game hatchery' - in Powys, mid-Wales. This will be a huge blow to the gamebird shooting industry. New blog ⬇️⬇️ raptorpersecutionuk.org/2023…

And this is why our rivers are struggling so much. The conviction that anything we do, including the destruction on the River Lugg can be fixed easily and in a couple of years.
This is a two part story watch both parts before commenting please It’s about the #riverlugg and #johnprice #flooding #river #maintenance #ea #ollyblogs #ollyrants but tame today
