Political Leadership

Ambitious political leadership is vital for action at the speed and scale needed to reverse nature decline and protect against climate change. Only politicians can make the major system reforms required while balancing competing objectives. In partnership with other NGOs, we aim to hold political leaders to account on the progress being made by the UK, nationally and globally, and we provide evidence based solutions to meet these major environmental challenges and create a thriving, fair, green economy.
