Across Europe, we are witnessing an increase in droughts, floods, and wildfires, along with the decline of pollinators, soil erosion, and water pollution. These issues seriously and increasingly threaten livelihoods, food security, and and our economy.
But there is a solution: nature itself. Every €1 invested in nature restoration can generate benefits from €8 to €38. Despite this, nature conservation and restoration in the EU are critically underfunded.
In the joint paper, the EEB, together with Bankwatch, BirdLife Europe, EuroNatur, and WWF EPO, call for a dedicated EU Nature Restoration Fund. The EU needs a dedicated funding instrument to address the escalating impacts of nature destruction and the climate crisis.
