'Climate change is not some abstract issue. Whether or not we address climate change goes to the heart of whether or not we have a functioning economy and whether or not people can live the lives that they deserve'
- Tessa Khan exec director & founder of
Uplift

Vital message lost in unfortunate headline.

Green groups wouldn't 'go to battle' over climate plans. We 100% support bold decarbonisation.

But we *are* fighting for equally ambitious nature plans, which need investment & intelligent planning policies.

🌍Science Proves Conservation Works!🌱

Exciting news! A groundbreaking study, co-authored by scientists from BirdLife International, confirms what we’ve always believed: conservation efforts are crucial and effective in stopping and reversing biodiversity loss.

'The Treaty is the missing piece of the jigsaw'.

Great to see APPG supporters from across parties including Barry Gardiner urging the UK to ratify the historic Global Ocean Treaty.

'Nature conservation works, and we’re getting better at it' #BangOn theconversation.com/nature-conserv…

It’s great that we have legislation in place now committing to a deposit return system. And very disappointing that it is so unambitious.

Marine Conservation Society found glass bottles on over 50% of beach cleans last year. We need glass bottles included, and we need action now.

🚨🗣️ REMINDER: There is a debate on the Ocean Treaty today in parliament.

We have the chance to protect 30% of our oceans by 2030 but the UK government must pass the Treaty into law immediately! 🌊

A really important piece of work by Green Finance Institute which, like #DasguptaReport shows that nature loss in not just an environmental and social crisis, it has massive economic impact as well

Proud to be part of this major report out today exploring nature-related risks to the UK economy and financial system:

Here’s a thread with some of the key takeaways:

#Nature related risks are as impactful as risks driven by GHG emissions. New analysis led by the GFI shows that nature loss could lead to an estimated 12% loss of GDP in the coming years - a larger impact than the global financial crisis or #COVID19 .
