A win for nature & climate! 🌱 64,300 more seagrass seeds have been planted in the #FirthofForth, with the goal of restoring vital underwater meadows. 🌊
Hear from the volunteers who helped harvest these very seeds and have planted them into the Forth.

Absolutely thrilled to read this as I've loved being involved with #RestorationForth
A win for nature! #RestorationForth and volunteers have been surveying oysters introduced to the Forth last autumn.
The results show an incredible 85% survival rate and average growth of 4.5mm. 👏
This is great news for marine life - restored oyster beds could double biodiversity in 10 years! 🐟

The long-awaited Natural Environment Bill has now been introduced! 🎉
#RestorationForth has shown that local communities are committed to restoring nature & the Scottish Government needs to enable them. The Bill must be followed with ambitious targets for nature & funding to turn plans into action.

Shell-ebrating a BIG ocean win from Scotland! 🦪
Another 10,000 European flat oysters have been introduced to the Forth by #RestorationForth – bringing the total to 40,000!
Together with partners & volunteers, @wwfscotland.bsky.social are restoring marine environments one oyster at a time. 💙

Scotland’s seagrass is part of a global ecosystem. 🧩🌍
On average, a seagrass meadow the size of 2 football fields can support 80,000 fish & a million invertebrates! Yet, we’re losing these habitats fast. #RestorationForth aims to restore seagrass meadows & hope for our oceans. 🌱
