With the Nature Positive Bill just around the corner in Wales, we are supporting the launch of a new Wales-wide campaign - Force for Nature - and you are invited!

the UK Government has launched an attack on nature, weakening the laws that protect our wildlife and making a U-turn on manifesto promises to be the greenest Government ever: reversing reforms to farming and making energy decisions that will worsen climate change.

Y flwyddyn nesaf, bydd etholiad cyffredinol yn y DU. Er bod yr amgylchedd, ffermio a physgodfeydd wedi’u datganoli (penderfyniadau’n cael eu gwneud yn eu cylch yng Nghaerdydd), rydyn ni'n parhau i fod angen i bleidleiswyr yng Nghymru anfon neges glir at ASau eu bod yn poeni am yr hyn sy’n digwydd i fyd natur.

The Wildlife Trusts believe that we are part of nature and that we depend on the natural world for our wellbeing and prosperity. Everything we value comes from nature and everything we do has an impact on it. We believe that nature should be a normal part of childhood and that wildlife should thrive across our landscape. However, nature is in crisis.

It has never been more evident that people care more about the state of their natural environment than ever before. With a general election on the horizon, it’s time politicians heard that message.

Spending time in nature makes us happier and healthier.

Nature-friendly farming.

We have pollinators to thank for every third mouthful we eat. Not only do they pollinate our food crops, but they’re also vital for the survival of other wild plants that support so much of our wildlife. The Wildlife Trusts are working to save bees and pollinators. Found out how you can help save butterflies and bees.

Life in the River Wye is silently slipping away. The crisis can be seen in the death of fish and insects, the unrelenting loss of aquatic flowers, and the huge algal blooms that turn the river green and stinking during long, hot spells. Phosphate, the chemical that creates these algal blooms and the resulting loss of oxygen in the water, is invisible. But you can see, and often smell, the main cause of the problem. Manure from chicken farms making its way into the Wye.
