It's good to see stamps being issued to promote important social and environmental issues as NZ has done with the biosecurity set.
ReplyDeleteWhile the populations of our waterways, gardens and parks, are beset by invasive species NZ takes this seriously by providing free boot-cleaning kits at Information Centres and reminding boat users and swimmers to scrub-down to avoid transferring any micro-organisms from one body of water to another.
I don't see the UK Environment Agency making any such moves in here.
