Northern Ireland will need to lose more than 1 million sheep and cattle to meet its new legally binding climate emissions targets, according to an industry-commissioned analysis seen by the Guardian.

The inevitable* evisceration of Natural England.
Those who object to this may feel minded to write to their MP.

I can't understand why there isn't more action to tackle the amount of litter that gets thrown out of vehicles. Riding around the South Wales valleys recently the sides of the roads are carpeted with McDonald's packaging, cans of Monster, plastics of all sorts etc. So depressing, especially in areas that could be so much nicer, and preventable. Can't think of any other Western European country that would tolerate it.

Wales was really bad. Of course people in cars are oblivious to it but when you're crawling up some hill it's really gross the amount of shit is along the side of the roads there. Cambrian 1A audax it really stood out.

It seems this is the official line:
I managed to speak with the franchise operator of McD Harringay, and the removal of the trees were not planned, the builders found serious subsidence and root invasion damaging the main drainage in and around the car park. As a result, they had to spend extra contingent budget to rectify it on the fly. Some of the trees were planted right on the periphery and too near the curb's edge and pavement causing them to lift and resulting in the uneven surfaces.
They are prepared to replant the same number of trees on site and if this is not possible, they will plant off site to replace the ones lost because of the unfortunate situation
I'm willing to bet that for whatever reason it won't be possible to replant the same number of trees on site.
