A PROMINENT environmental charity has called on the Scottish Government to clear its rewilding “blindspot” so that Scotland can lead the way in
The call comes with a claim that the Government’s “bizarre” lack of interest in rewilding has had “real impacts” on the country’s ability to address the nature and climate crises.
“For a long time now, we have not even been holding the line when it comes to halting the loss of our habitats and species, many of which are globally rare or even unique,” says Micklewright. This can be achieved if the Government works with and supports local communities, restores habitats on public land and delivers legislation to ensure and reward nature restoration, Micklewright argues.
