Why should we protect nature?

A healthy natural environment is one of our best allies in the fight against climate breakdown – if we keep it in good condition.

Nature is perhaps our best defence against climate change-related flooding, storm surges, wildfires and drought. It’s better than concrete flood walls or artificial reefs. Natural reed beds, coral and mangroves can hold back tides and support more wildlife.

Climate breakdown is already affecting nature – but it's not inevitable. It's still possible to help stop climate breakdown and nature’s decline.

Green communities

Through our partnership with The Co-operative Bank we're putting Postcode Gardeners into the most nature-deprived neighbourhoods, to green spaces and bring communities together.

Does your neighbourhood have enough green space?

Nature is hugely beneficial to our health and wellbeing, as well as being key to a healthy planet. Yet millions of people across England lack access to good quality green space. 

We've analysed data to uncover the best (and worst) neighbourhoods for access to green space. Is your neighbourhood one of the unlucky ones? Enter your postcode to find out.
