Burning Britain’s grouse moors could be polluting the air millions breathe.

New research found that, on days when peatlands were deliberately burned, an extra 550,000 people were exposed to unsafe levels of PM2.5 pollution.

The study adds to growing calls to end routine burning and restore damaged uplands.

Researchers at @yorkuniversity have developed a way to automatically detect tree symbols on 19th-century Ordnance Survey maps – a task that previously had to be done by hand.

The breakthrough could help scientists map how Britain’s trees and green spaces have changed over the last 150 years, offering an unprecedented picture of the country’s historic treescape.

The team ultimately hopes to create a national historic tree map of Britain.

Some 💦GOOD NEWS💦 for England's smallest streams.

A new £7.7m project will restore polluted headwaters – the tiny waterways that feed downstream water bodies. Though vital for wildlife and clean water, these streams are often overlooked and poorly protected.

The Headstart programme, led by Freshwater Habitats Trust and Anglian Water, will work across six English catchments to upgrade sewage treatment works, restore wetlands and ponds, and cut farm pollution.

How is climate change affecting Scottish rainforests? The answer lies in the tree rings.

A team of researchers, led by scientists at the University of Cambridge, measured tree-ring widths in 267 oaks across western Scotland. They found that annual tree growth has become less governed by temperature and more sensitive to moisture over time.

The start of the growing season has advanced by around a week over the past 30 years, even as the overall season appears to be shortening.

What does this mean for the rainforests of the future? For now – they are not sure.

At the moment, the rainforests appear resilient, but these shifts will only continue with time.

To ensure that Scotland's rainforests continue to thrive into the future, the paper recommends adaptive management, taking into account warmer and drier conditions, to ensure that restoration succeeds into the future.

White-tailed eagles are coming to Exmoor. Up to 20 of the UK’s largest birds of prey will be released in the national park over the next three years, after approval from Natural England.

The project builds on the successful Isle of Wight reintroduction, where 45 birds have already been released. Conservationists say Exmoor’s mix of coast, woodland and wetlands makes it ideal habitat, and tracking data shows some eagles are already visiting the area.

Supporters say the birds could help restore lost ecosystems, while some farmers remain concerned about possible impacts on sheep.

Reintroducing White Storks is not a priority, according to Natural England.

The reason? Serious questions remain over whether White Storks were ever truly native to Britain. There is only one confirmed record of the birds breeding here – in Scotland in 1416 – and their remains are rare in the archaeological record.

If storks were never really part of Britain’s ecosystems, should we be trying to bring them back at all?

Despite the uncertainty, reintroduction projects are already underway. At the rewilded Knepp Estate in West Sussex, White Storks have been breeding following releases that began in 2016.

So what do you think: does Britain need White Storks?

A new study estimates the net cost to society of bottom trawling in European waters. The impacts of climate change are the greatest expense: trawling disturbs carbon in the sediment, releasing greenhouse gases.
