2010 - International Year of Biodiversity

HAPPY NEW YEAR! Here's to a bird and moth filled year for all. I've already had a Blackbird alarm calling and a Robin singing at 00:05 whilst out watching fireworks and lanterns over the garden.

Apparently, 2010 has been declared as the UN International Year of Biodiversity ..



Hopefully that doesn't mean a year of hollow pledges and meaningless treaties followed by more decades of unsustainably raping the environment .....

The year is a chance for all of us who care for the diversity of life on the planet to take action and to try to communicate to everyone why we need to pay attention to the biodiversity crisis!
