BBC Climate change: life in ocean ‘twilight zone' at risk from warming 3 May 2023 By Maddie Molloy

Climate change could dramatically reduce life in the deepest parts of our oceans that are reached by sunlight, scientists warn.

Global warming could curtail life in the so-called twilight zone by as much as 40% by the end of the century, according to new research.

The twilight zone lies between 200m (656ft) and 1,000m (3,281ft).

BBC Rwanda floods and landslides kill more than 130 people 4 May 2023 By Cyuzuzo Samba & Cecilia Macaulay

At least 130 people have died after floods and landslides hit Rwanda's northern and western provinces, authorities say.

The rains hit at night when many people were asleep - an official told the BBC this is one reason why so many died.


Rwanda's public broadcaster RBA reports that the casualty numbers are expected to increase as floodwaters continue to rise.

This is the worst flooding Rwanda has seen since May 2020 when around 80 people died.

BBC Climate change: Carbon-absorbing underwater meadows planted 23 Feb 2023

Five million seagrass seeds will be planted off Wales' coast to create climate change-fighting underwater meadows.

On Wednesday, 50,000 were laid at Penychain off the Ll?n Peninsula in Gwynedd.


WWF Cymru's Rory Francis said Wales had lost 92% of its seagrass over the past 100 years, but it was possible to "recreate, restore and replant" it.

"It could make a real difference in terms of both absorbing carbon and also of restoring really valuable and important marine habitats," said Mr Francis.

He said one hectare could provide a habitat for 80,000 fish.

"We have built cities and ports, we have had huge mining projects. We have fundamentally changed the coastal environment and with that we have destroyed life on the sea beds."
