Essential Environment: Land & nature policy 2025
Since the election of the new UK Government, environmental issues have seen significant policy developments, so there are plenty of opportunities to engage.
The IES has created this briefing paper as an introductory reference on environmental policy relating to land and linked issues, including land-based biodiversity and ecosystems.
We hope the paper will help IES members to stay up-to-date on relevant policy issues, supporting horizon scanning and identifying opportunities for our expert members to engage with decision makers and the public. We publish updates to this paper on an annual basis.
You may also be interested in our horizon scanning papers on water policy and clean air, which will be published shortly.
