"While $135 billion is spent annually on biodiversity conservation, up to $3.3 trillion in public subsidies are directed toward sectors that harm nature.
This imbalance mirrors the broader issue of wealth concentration."
Great @theecologist.org piece on making the connections around nature loss.

Extreme wealth is fuelling environmental collapse. It’s time to draw the line.

It's the same disastrous story in so many parts of the world: massively species-rich native ecosystems transformed into just grass for livestock or monoculture tree plantations.
Where is the understanding that our planet functions as a SYSTEM (the biosphere), and that this is killing it?

Same story in Aotearoa New Zealand.
People think what we have here is some green paradise but it's largely become a giant field for grazing or pine forests for timber
Native bush is glorious, I wish we saw more of it

An "accidentally rewilded" 377-acre UK farm is now home to many threatened species, including turtle doves, warblers, 11 bat species, orchids + butterflies.
Such examples prove how nature can recover when we let it, and that rewilding reverses nature loss. 🌍

Hi BlueSky friends (new and old)...
We're a grassroots campaign calling on the Britain's biggest landowners to rewild their land!
We'd love to connect with everyone who believes in a fairer, wilder Britain.
Make it wild & make it ours!
