Cold but wonderful! Early walk with Molly across the golf course. Heavy frosts and long shadows - very liminal.

doubt is the burden of the thoughtful. Confidence, unfortunately, often belongs to the clueless.

Beautiful sun this morning on my dog walk. Poking through the trees and mist.

Walking the dog (walking) is a great time for exercise and introspection.

I don't think I can say this enough: the environmental movement has lost its way.

Environmentalism is not about sustainability and finding substitutes for fossil fuels in solar, wind, etc.

Environmentalism is about saving as much of the planet as possible, about preserving our beautiful home.

1. Here's why I'll never use AI to assist my research or writing:
A. I don't want to know exactly what I'm looking for.
I mean that when I start researching a topic, I want to remain open to its contradictions and paradoxes, and to the unexpected paths that might lead off it. 🧵

Since I moved to the #malvernhills 3 years ago, I’ve been blessed with amazing scenery that’s good for my soul. This is a view from British Camp last year.

I wish they'd quit launching rockets and focus on fixing the planet instead.

Yeah, I know, fat chance.

Jeremy Clarkson, James Dyson, the Earl of Derby – they’re up in arms about paying tax on the vast areas of land they own.

Small farmers are worried that changes to Agricultural Property Relief (APR) will affect them. But who are the big landowners complaining the loudest? Thread: 1/
