Indonesian earthquake and tsunami
Over 800 people have been killed and many more are injured or missing after an earthquake and subsequent tsunami swamped the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia; a 7.5 magnitude earthquake triggered the surge of water that swept inland affecting the city of Palu and many other towns and villages, where the search and rescue mission still continues
Owls in decline
The general public have been asked to listen out for the sound of owls in their back garden, park or any green space over the next six months to help get an idea of their distribution; it is thought that light pollution and urbanisation are having a negative impact on population numbers
National Get Outside Day
Today is the UK's National 'Get Outside Day', a day that tries to raise awareness of the increasing trend of people to be inactive and not make the most of local green spaces; events are being held across the country for people to join in with walks in the fresh air and countryside, and increase their physical and mental well being as a result of engaging with nature
