Stop the destruction of nature

Our world is in crisis. We’re losing precious wildlife as their homes are destroyed.

Our leaders must stop fuelling the destruction of nature and start bringing our world back to life.

    Why this is critical

    Global wildlife populations have plummeted by an average of 69% since 1970, and we're running out of time to make a difference for future generations.

    Nature is our best ally in the fight against climate change, helping us to be more resilient to extreme weather events. Our global economy also relies on nature – without nature we have no supply chains, no products – and no food.

Thank you for your support

Thank you! Over 10,000 of you wrote to your MP last year calling for the current UK government to keep the crucial promises they’ve made to tackle the nature and climate crisis.  

Your action made a real difference. One of those key promises was to keep illegal deforestation out of products sold here in the UK, and at the end of 2023 the Environment Secretary finally announced plans to put this into place in UK law – a result of the pressure from thousands of people across the UK, and a win for precious forests around the world.
