Species records from UK Pollinator Monitoring Scheme surveys are starting to contribute to a better understanding of the #StateOfNature, alongside millions of other records collated by volunteers #CitizenScience BWARS BRC 🐝🦟🪲🪰🦋🌼

Dire statistics indeed #StateOfNature. Nature recovery needs radical changes in the way we manage land. Agriculture and forestry are key and we need effective policies for both that allow nature to recover. 1/3

For me one of the huge positives of the #StateOfNature report is the staggering contribution that volunteer recorders have made over recent decades. Without their generosity, there would be no #StateOfNature and our understanding of the natural world would be so much poorer. 1/2

We just launched a survey to understand how members of the public and landowners feel about the topic of expanding access to #nature in England. Please help us by filling in the anonymous survey at surveymonkey.co.uk/r/SV2PLYR and sharing it with family, friends and other landowners.

🌱We are seeking as many opinions as possible from the public, landowners & land managers about expanding access to #nature in England. Please help us by sharing this ~10 min survey with family, friends & relevant contacts bit.ly/48HS8L4
