With intolerance and inequality increasingly normalised by the day,
it's more important than ever to share real experiences and hold
the truth to account in the midst of sensationalism and
international political turmoil. Nasty Women is a collection of
essays, interviews and accounts on what it is to be a woman in the
21st century.Punk, pressure, politics, people - from working class
experience to racial divides in Trump's America, being a child of
immigrants, to sexual assault, Brexit, pregnancy, contraception,
identity, family, finding a voice online, role models and more,
Laura Jane Grace of Against Me!, Zeba Talkhani, Chitra Ramaswamy
are just a few of the incredible women who share their experience
here.Keep telling your stories and tell them loud.
Advice involves immediate 'rapid-response' actions to initiate
containment along with preventative strategies, measures for
control and monitoring requirements post-control. The manual
responds to the GB Non-Native Species Strategy and deals with over
40 species which have been selected from plants listed in Schedule
9 of the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 (as amended) for the
UK; invasive alien species of EU concern (as per EU IAS Regulation
1143/2014); and other noteworthy species of the urban environment,
for example butterfly-bush (buddleia). Each species account
includes: a brief description on ecology and identification with
corresponding photographs; a distribution map for the British and
Irish Isles; immediate actions that can be taken once identified;
pathways of spread; lifespan; seed-production age; seed longevity;
growth rate; a 'schematic' of the life-cycle aimed at assisting the
determination of schedules for survey and treatment; prevention and
rapid-response measures; tables of control, management and
herbicide treatment linked to decision-making flow diagrams;
waste-disposal requirements; revegetation post-management; and
continued monitoring. Key references to published data and links to
appropriate websites are also included.
