Wild Talks
#wildtalks A citizens deliberation on the Green Transition
Nature and the ecosystems that help us live are in big trouble. Things like large-scale farming, cutting down forests, spreading cities, and pollution are hurting biodiversity in Europe. This puts thousands of animals and habitats at risk. Changes to rivers and lakes, like building dams and taking too much water, along with invasive species and the climate crisis, damage our ecosystems. How can ensure we take care of our nature world?

Biodiversity loss is one of the clearest signs of the impact of human activity on the environment. Pollution, land artificialisation and the destruction of natural habitats upset the balance of every living environment, whether aquatic, terrestrial or aerial...
All these disturbances not only hinder the reproduction of species, but also make it difficult for those already present to survive, by depriving them of the space or resources they need to live.
The most important sources of pollution in urban areas are
- transport, which emits greenhouse gases and fine particles
-industry, which also releases gases and other pollutants that can end up in the environment (via water)
- light and noise pollution from activities in general.
Local action, such as reducing public lighting or protecting protected areas, can help to protect wildlife.
