The Environment
I've been interested in the environment all my life.
My father inspired me from an early age to take in everything that was around me...
the sights, sounds and smells...
I have never forgotten our walks through the woods and fields in Wiltshire, watching, listening and identifying the birds and trees...
My father enthused within me a oneness with nature, and at the same time an anger towards those that abuse it...
The result of his nuturing directed me towards studying ecology and the environment...
here are some links to my favourite environmental sites on the internet...
- The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (and wildlife) over a million members strong!
They are protecting, conserving & educating us about important habitats for our wildlife
A tern - one of our many coastal birds that is in danger
The RSPB is one of the main Non-governmental lobby groups in the country...
Greenpeace played an important part in my life during my teenage years!
They go straight for the jugular, they don't beat around the bush, they tell it how it really is...
using sound scientific researchers that don't hide behindstatistics and closed office doors...
They inspired me to stand up and shout out for what I believe in... people power works!
The Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society is a UK based society...
This site is an eye opener for those of you who don't know whats going on...
Their aim is to raise world awareness of the decline and abuse of cetaceans...
Check out your local FOE group and what they are doing for you and your environment.
Some of us CARE what goes on "in your back yard"
