RE-WILDING IS ABOUT THE RESTORATION OF WHAT WAS COMMON LAND BEFORE INTERVENTION

THIS IS ANOTHER OIECE FROM 38 DEGREES

Rewilding is all about restoring land back to its natural form - before humans intervened. This means letting trees regrow, restoring peatlands and reintroducing missing species like beavers. [4] According to the UN, the world has to rewild an area of land the size of China by 2030 just to have a chance of tackling the climate crisis. [5] As global figures watched by millions, the royals have a great chance to show leadership on this issue. 

And it’s not just us calling for them to take action. Supporters of the campaign include naturalist Chris Packham, TV chef Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, TV presenter Kate Humble, and even music legend Sting.

AND A FINAL NOTE FROM THEM

P.S. For this campaign, we’re collaborating with new rewilding campaign group Wild Card. They’re calling on the UK's biggest landowners to rewild their lands to address the climate and nature emergency. The group is currently campaigning for the lands of the Royal Family, the Church of England and Oxbridge Colleges to be returned to nature.
