Photo essay how the climate and nature crisis is changing the UK
The international climate crisis is affecting people and wildlife across the UK, one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world. WWF is urging political parties to respond
The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world: more than 1,000 British species are at risk of extinction. Polls have repeatedly shown that while the British public may be divided on Brexit, we are united by our love of nature and concern about climate. WWF is urging all political parties to respond to the nature and climate crisis, by committing to bold policies and investment to make the UK the first major economy to halt our contribution to climate change, put nature on a path to recovery and stop deforestation in our food supply chains. The UK must pioneer an economic and financial system that works for people and planet and drive global ambition to respond to the planetary emergency.
