One in 6 species at risk of extinction in Great Britain - Catherine - 09-28-2023
The State of Nature report indicates that one in 6 species in Great Britain is in danger of extinction. Human activity is the primary cause. Our farming methods and climate change because of fossil fuels are having a negative impact on nature.

On a positive note, conservation efforts are working, but we need to do more. Our whole approach to farming needs to change.
Land usage needs to change. Without change, the biodiversity of the UK will decline. Efforts to save things needs to be at a faster pace. The decline is faster than the current conservation efforts. We can do this if we really focus on what needs to be done.
