| Some rare good news
I've just received a newsletter from a wildlife society I belong to. The authorities were threatening to build a cycle track through the middle of the society's nature reserve, an important site for birds on the Dee estuary. An unthinkable act of vandalism. Maybe not unthinkable, because they thought it. They have decided not to go ahead so the reserve is saved. I say good news but it's only partially good. The cycle track will be rerouted somewhere else, so some other piece of countryside is going to be blighted with it. |
