Professor delivers talk at Manx Wildlife Trust's AGM
We should be seriously concerned about a widescale drop in insect numbers.
So says Professor of Evolutionary Behaviour and Environment at the University of Sussex, Dave Goulson.
Professor Goulson has been on the Island addressing the Manx Wildlife Trust's AGM.
He's coined the term "insectigeddon" to describe the massive drop in insect numbers being seen and says some recent research from Germany provided some alarming figures:
Safeguarding Board highlights progress on adult protection but warns of gaps in support for vulnerable children
Information Commissioner orders FSA to reconsider FOI response on staffing and pay
Waiting time for driving tests considerably lower in the Isle of Man than UK
Mountain Road closure extended until Thursday
