Monday Musings where normally I share some things that have thrilled me, made me think or smile or even have a mini-rant but generally it is my happy place and I hope yours…July has arrived as has the sun but it is also coming to the end…will August be as sunny? I hope so for those I am leaving behind as most do love the sunny days it makes one feel feel so much better…
I only have a few days left of my trip its been such fun and lovely to catch up with family and friends who have made me very welcome…I have been very lucky with the weather and have had to use a bigger case for all my purchases… it’s a good job I have a bigger luggage allowance on my return trip…phew…
Today I am sharing the good news we are going to become great-grandparents in Jan 2023…
That means another trip to the Uk…not for Christmas but for afterwards…maybe I can bring the sunshine with me again…or just buy some wellies…lol…
Now for some “Global Good News”…
How Sussex farmers(UK) plan to rewild a nature-rich green corridor to the sea
23 July 2022 – The Weald to Waves project aims to boost biodiversity by rewilding land as part of the government ‘landscape recovery’ pilot scheme. The Weald to Waves project aims to create at least 10,000 hectares (24,710 acres) of nature-friendly land in corridors running from the rolling hills of the Weald down the valleys of the Rivers Arun and Adur to boost biodiversity on land and in the sea.
Will this mean Climate Smart rewilding while still providing food…an interesting clip…Fingers crossed it will be a way forward…To read more Global Good News about bees and electric cars etc etc… please click here
The Earth shot Prize this wonderful project founded by Prince William and Sir David Attenborough is headed for Boston(US) this in December this year…
I can’t wait to see who are the finalists this year and see what innovative ideas they have come up with…
That’s all for today’s Monday Musings…Thank you so much for joining me as always I look forward to your comments…next week normal service will be resumed and I will be back to visiting a few more blogs but I have had a wonderful time visiting family and friends around the Uk all who have made my visit so special…xx
Congratulations, Carol. Wonderfully done! 🌍😊
