Last Thursday's Guardian newspaper (this is the best paper for these sorts of stories) has an article on a new report by the
Green Finance Institute which warns that further breakdown in
the UK’s natural environment could lead to a
12% loss of gross domestic product (GDP) by the 2030s.
It explains how our government's current disregard for nature is going to have drastic consequences.
I will unpick this report a little more once we find out how this links with the proposed specifications. I hope something on the real value of nature is included.
