Its a year since Kim @BadlyBehavedOne and I published The Climate Change Garden. Since then we've had one of the wettest autumns and winters & the warmest spring on record. Our book explores ways of making your garden more resilient. Signed copies here climatechangegarden.uk

Did you know that hose pipes use an astonishing 1000 litres of water per hour?! 😮Ditch the hose and let that lawn go brown - it will recover quickly when it rains again 🌱#WatersWorthSaving

Did you know?🤔 Water use accounts for 6% of UK greenhouse gas emissions – & 5% of this comes from energy used to heat water in the home. 😲 Save water to save energy & help save on your energy bill. 👍😁 YourWaterYourLife.co.uk #WaterIsAlwaysWorthSaving

Never judge a book by its cover-good flows, plenty of substrate,no visible pollution but almost entirely lacking in @Riverflies. On the case
