Wildlife Trusts across the country, including in the North East, have announced a new strategy to put nature in recovery by 2030.
The Wildlife Trusts new Strategy 2030, launched today (April 28), shows how people will be at the heart of vast nature restoration projects that will aim to reverse the decline of nature. New plans announced could help people to experience nature in a way they never have previously, with large, populated areas butting up against large rewilded landscapes, says the charity.
The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world and with 41% of species in decline since the 1970s plus 15% of species at risk of extinction, urgent action is required to stop hedgehogs, water voles and red squirrels disappearing forever. Northumberland Wildlife Trust, and the wider network across the country, plan to empower people to reverse that trend.
