We are in the middle of a climate and nature emergency, and the two are inextricably linked. Climate change is driving nature’s decline, and the loss of wildlife and wild places leaves us ill-equipped to reduce carbon emissions and adapt to change.

You can help wildlife and nature recovery by actively participating in the planning system. Rather than only reacting to potentially damaging planning applications, it’s more effective to change the policies that govern planning decisions.

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.

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.

The Agriculture (WALES) Bill is the legal framework being used to implement the Sustainable Farming Scheme (SFS), a ground-breaking piece of legislation that could change the face of farming in Wales forever. The scheme focuses on payments for farmers based on public goods, and replaces the Common Agriculture Payment (CAP) scheme.
