Biodiversity - our shame
The four nations of the United Kingdom are in the bottom 25% of nations and territories for biodiversity intactness, ranking the lowest in the G7 countries. Scotland has a score of 56%, Wales 51%, Northern Ireland 50% and England 47%.
9% over England really is a poor showing. The island(s) need to do better.
