The result is the recently published "A Re-wilding Case for Surrey: Finding the Local Ecological ‘Sweet-spot’" and here, Mike will be presenting his conclusions on the matter, as well as how this will inevitably influence the Trust's mission going forwards. The document sets out the evidence for why a radical systems change in nature conservation is long overdue. but it is still only a manifesto; the careful but bold implementation of its principles and actions is how we will deliver the desired outcomes for nature recovery in Surrey.🕑: 03:05 PM - 04:00 PMBuilding Connections for NatureHost: Louise Shorthose, Outdoor Learning ManagerInfo: Nature needs more than conservation, it needs people.
