Protect Welsh countryside from the UK government’s attack on nature
The UK government is planning a reckless bonfire of the laws that protect our health and environment - putting people and nature in grave danger.
If its new plan goes ahead, hundreds of environmental laws could be ripped up next year. From the rules that stop river pollution to those that protect us from toxic pesticides.
Many of these powers are devolved to the Welsh Government and commitments have been made by the Welsh Government not to weaken these protections. But there is great concern that the UK government will try to force changes on Wales – undermining hard fought for protections for people and nature.
The UK government is going all-out for dangerous deregulation at a scale never seen before. Our response needs to be even bigger.
It isn’t too late to stop the UK government’s attack on nature.
