Our position on the EU Nature Restoration Law
This paper represents the position on the upcoming EU Nature Restoration Law of the youth NGOs Generation Climate Europe, Youth and Environment Europe, Biodiversity Action Europe, Global Youth for Biodiversity Network Europe, Young Rewilders, and Young Friends of the Earth Europe.
After the failure to meet the objectives of the EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2020 and every single Aichi Target, there is the need for a transformative intervention to halt biodiversity loss and degradation of ecosystems. As this degradation is so severe and wide-spread, merely protecting what is left is no longer enough and timely, large-scale nature restoration is needed. The EU new Nature Restoration Law must therefore be strong and lead to the urgent change needed.
