Situation
Centuries of habitat loss, intensified farming, urban development, and species persecution means Scotland is now one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world, ranking in the lowest 12% worldwide in terms of biodiversity loss. Climate breakdown demands natural solutions to carbon storage through rewilding alongside diversified nature-based opportunities for rural communities. This legacy offers us a more hopeful future for nature and people in Britain.
Solution
A global rewilding movement is helping nature make a dramatic comeback, revitalising communities and natural processes. Scotland has the space, the experience, the wealth and the global responsibility to rewild. We are uniquely placed to show that nature loss can be reversed. In partnership with landowners, communities, interest groups and government, we will create flourishing ecosystems, whilst supporting self-sustaining nature-based economies which secure a future for local communities.
