Strategic investment in nature builds the infrastructure our nation needs for security.
In this video, Rachel Williams, Deputy Director for Wessex for Natural England makes the connection between thriving nature and national security.
Using the example of Lyscombe Farm and our partnership with Dorset Wildlife Trust, Rachel explains how Natural England can bring together the right partners, funding and expertise to unlock housebuilding and economic growth.
Nature helps us adapt to the threats of a changing climate and supports more resilient food production, healthy soils and clean air. Through our new strategy, nature will be embedded in plans and policies as a cost-effective long-term solution to climate change and resource security.
