Nature isn’t a “blocker” – it makes our lives better.
Our coast, countryside, heritage and wildlife underpin our food, water and health and put millions of pounds into the economy. The Government must not weaken the laws that protect them.
Nov 20, 2025 08:41At next week's budget, we're calling on the Chancellor to:
1. Recognise that nature - more of it, and better access to it - will boost the economy and could save the NHS billions of pounds
2. Defend the long-standing laws that protect our already scarce and most precious species and keep Biodiversity Net Gain, a scheme which requires nature to be improved while homes are built.
3. Change the record!
Language matters. Bashing wildlife and those who protect it isn’t helping anyone
