Nature Recovery Sheffield is a call to action for individuals, families, local businesses, organisations, schools and colleges. We all rely on nature, so we can all take action to help.
As well as a climate crisis, our wildlife is facing a critical emergency. More than 1 in 10 of over 8,000 species assessed in the 2019 State of Nature Report are at risk of extinction and 41% of species in the UK are in decline.
We’ve seen an incredible response to Nature Recovery Sheffield so far, with over 1,200 people and 34 organisations signed up, plus public support from the leaders of Sheffield’s Green Party, Liberal Democrat and Labour groups and Olivia Blake MP. On 16th June 2021, a motion on the nature emergency was carried by Sheffield City Council, including commitments to declare a nature emergency and to deliver a Nature Emergency Action Plan.
We Declare a Nature Emergency for Sheffield! #NatureSheffieldWe are continuing our campaign for action this year, and we’re asking you – as an individual or organisation – to join us by signing up to Nature Recovery Sheffield. Our newsletter and social media will keep you up to date with our activities and help you network with like-minded people. We’re also working to find out and share with you the things people are already doing to help nature in Sheffield.
