Speak up for rewilding and nature recovery!
YRN would like your help to tell every serving politician in Yorkshire:
- how important nature recovery is
- how rewilding can play a massive part in that recovery
- that you want government policies and action that enable nature to thrive
Below we give you some ideas on how to do that. Make it personal if you can, tell them why you care about biodiversity and climate change.
Remember: when humans want to, we change things for the better.

Tell UK Government: We must Rewild to Recover from extreme weather.
Rewilding Britain invite you to sign an open letter calling on the Government to back rewilding.
Britain’s climate is changing fast, and our landscapes simply aren’t ready — wildfires, floods and drought are already hitting homes, farms and communities across the country. There is hope. Where rewilding is taking root, we see proof that wilder landscapes protect us from extreme weather.
Rewilding Britain is calling on the Government to put nature recovery at the heart of how we prepare for and respond to these extreme weather events, including a new Climate Shock Fund to restore the landscapes that protect us. It only takes two minutes to add your voice — sign the open letter here and help push rewilding to the top of the political agenda.

The Rewilding Manifesto – 30 by 30
In 2022, at the UN Biodiversity Summit (COP15), the UK made a formal commitment to protect and conserve a minimum of 30% of land and sea for biodiversity by 2030, known as 30×30.
The Rewilding Britain Rewilding Manifesto, which YRN supports, calls for this target to be delivered through rewilding.
