The Wildlife Trusts believe that development should not come at the expense of our natural environment. All development, be it housing, commercial or infrastructure must be designed and delivered in a way that contributes to nature’s recovery, not its decline.

The Wildlife Trusts work to bring wildlife back, tackle the climate and nature crises, and help everyone take meaningful action for nature.

The next UK General Election must be a turning point for nature. ALL political parties must take nature loss and climate change seriously and act to bring about its recovery. Find information and resources to help you speak up for nature with The Wildlife Trusts.

Take on the Big Wild Walk for nature and climate in October

In October 2024, global governments will be coming together in Colombia to discuss the nature emergency. The conference, known as COP16, will review how well each country is doing against targets set in 2022 (at COP15 in Canada) to bring about nature's recovery by 2030.

With nature still in decline in Wales and in some cases going backwards on the targets set, Wildlife Trusts Wales
share what the Welsh Government needs to do to meet global targets and lead on the world stage.

Discover Wildlife Trusts Wales’ asks for the Senedd elections to restore nature, cut pollution, support farmers, and secure a healthier future for people and wildlife.
