The National Trust, RSPB and Wildlife Trusts say all options are on the table amid a rural revolt.
Hilary McGrady, who runs the National Trust; the chief executive of the Wildlife Trusts, Craig Bennett; and Beccy Speight from the RSPB made their comments in a joint interview with the BBC.
Plans to scrap EU protections for nature, a relaxation of planning laws in new "investment zones", and the review of environmental farm subsidies were all cited. The combined membership of the three organisations is eight million, including many Conservative voters from across the country.Image caption,Mrs McGrady of the National Trust said: "This is the biggest attack on nature certainly in my lifetime and let alone my career. This is unprecedented - that's why we are stepping forward with the RSPB and Wildlife Trusts.
But Mrs Speight of the RSPB and Mr Bennett said they would be prepared to organise a march in London if the government didn't provide the guarantees they were seeking.
