The relentless expansion of the global population is placing unprecedented strain on our planet, intensifying critical challenges such as climate change, ecological collapse, and various other issues.

[Alexandra Steed URBAN @ASUrbanLondon]

Biodiversity, a crucial indicator of planetary health, has already surpassed critical thresholds. Measures such as Biodiversity Net Gain and the protection of 30% of the Earth’s land and seas are urgently needed to address this issue.

[Alexandra Steed URBAN @ASUrbanLondon]

However, more must be done to improve the critical state of biodiversity internationally.

Many people understand that we are in a climate emergency. However, scientists believe that ecological collapse is an even more significant threat.

[Alexandra Steed URBAN @ASUrbanLondon]

Wild animals now only comprise 4% of the world’s mammals’ biomass, with humans comprising 34% and livestock a staggering 62%.

This is precisely why measures like the UK’s new Biodiversity Net Gain legislation for development sites are so important.
