What Nature does for Britain - with Tony Juniper & The Wildlife Trusts

Описание: "For too long we have been told that looking after Nature is an impediment to progress, a barrier to competitiveness and hindrance to economic growth. The opposite is in fact the case, with vibrant natural systems playing essential roles in protecting our health, wealth and security." ~ Tony Juniper

This is the message conveyed in this short film featuring author and campaigner Tony Juniper and Steph Hilborne, Chief Executive of The Wildlife Trusts, and includes an introduction to the proposed Nature and Wellbeing Act.

The Wildlife Trusts: Protecting Wildlife for the Future

We are working for an environment rich in wildlife for everyone. With more than 800,000 members, we are the largest UK voluntary organisation dedicated to conserving the full range of the UK’s habitats and species, whether they be in the countryside, in cities or at sea.

More than 150,000 of our members belong to our junior branch, Wildlife Watch.

There are 47 local Wildlife Trusts across the whole of the UK, the Isle of Man and Alderney.

We manage around 2,300 nature reserves covering more than 90,000 hectares; we stand up for wildlife; we inspire people about the natural world and we foster sustainable living.
