MP and NGOs will join together at a parliamentary event on 15th April to urge Government to reset environmental policy to address the nature loss crisis.

On Wednesday 15th April a group of MPs will gather in Parliament, following a Lords debate about the impact of bottom-trawling on marine wildlife, to support calls on the UK Government to expand and accelerate policies for nature recovery.

The event comes after months of growing public and political disquiet about the severe and continuing degradation of the UK’s nature. It will be hosted by Chris Hinchliff MP and will see The Wildlife Trusts, RSPB, Woodland Trust and Friends of the Earth speakers set out evidence of ongoing species and habitat declines and the escalating impacts on people. UK Government will be urged to reset environmental policy to address the crisis.
