Testing Nature-based Solutions at a landscape-scale to benefit nature, people and Net Zero.
Learning by doing
Nature Returns is working with six landscape-scale projects across the country as they design, deliver and test different Nature-based Solutions.
At their heart, these are Nature Recovery projects, restoring nature at a landscape-scale, to increase biodiversity and contribute to Net Zero by enhancing carbon capture. They also deliver benefits to local communities through ‘ecosystem services’ like natural flood management.
Nature Returns brings these projects into a broader partnership which enables ‘learning by doing’. We are supporting them in project delivery and in developing long-term funding plans. At the same time, we are learning how our organisations can collaborate better and scale-up to support future projects across the country.
Over the next ten years, the projects will form a dynamic science hub, providing a broad range of habitats for our carbon and biodiversity research.
