Please add your name so that our moorlands can be rewetted; so that native raptors are no longer persecuted; so that our soil and water are no longer contaminated by lead shot; so that our wild birds no longer have to compete with an estimated 60 million non-native game birds released annually

Some policy suggestions on 🦫 and Wales from the group. The return of beaver will be a key part of building resilience - for communities, and landscapes - in Wales as part of our response to the extreme weather of 2026. #beaver #Wales #hope

There are no rules governing the release of pheasants near busy roads. In fact, the industry still isn't licensed at all. Compare that to the decades of hand-wringing and intense regulation surrounding the reintroduction of the (actually native) Eurasian beaver. Makes you think.

The purple, treeless moors found across Britain’s uplands can look timeless and wild. In Jane Eyre, Charlotte Brontë described “the purple moors” as “a wilderness of heath”. Yet these moors have been shaped by clearance, drainage, grazing, pollution and burning. theconversation.com/how-rewildin...

This is just a glimpse of what's to come without immediate action. It’s time to treat Scotland's wildfire risk as the national emergency it is. That means investing in prevention, early warning systems, and restoring the natural habitats that make our landscapes more resilient.

Scale looks different here. Wales has smaller landholdings and less public land than its neighbours. Instead of massive single estates, Welsh rewilding means big action in our marine environments and a "constellation" of small-to-medium sites on land. #Wales #people

Rewilding is inherently about both nature and people. But in Wales, it's often misunderstood—wrongly linked to corporate carbon offsetting, "fortress conservation," or threats to rural communities and the Welsh language. True rewilding is a mosaic of life, not a people-free wilderness. #rewilding

It’s entirely false to pretend the alternative to underpaying food producers and staff is that food has to be more expensive. Supermarkets are making record windfall profits in a cost of living crisis and it’s only getting more extreme. Government can resolve this one of countless ways.

It's been over grazed historically and had mono grazing, yes. The system funded it. And the market thanked that. In part. Mostly subsidy. So saying "you've wrecked it" helps no one. Rewilding focuses on the future and the positive. That set's up positive discussion.
