Today Scottish Environment LINK members gave evidence to Parliament’s Rural Affairs Committee on marine priorities. As Scotland’s seas continue to decline, we need inclusive management and well-resourced Marine Protected Areas to deliver win-wins for nature, fishing, and coastal communities.

This Wednesday, MSPs will debate how Scotland can build resilience to climate shocks – including the role nature recovery can play. We’ll be outside Parliament before the debate, making sure the urgency of preparing for climate shocks is visible outside as well as inside Holyrood. 🧵3/4

An event poster on a solid yellow background. At the top, bold black text reads "THIS WEDNESDAY!" Below, a hand drawn in a comic-book style holds up a blue placard. Written on the placard in white, handwritten-style text is "Prepare Scotland for CLIMATE SHOCKS". In the bottom corners are details for the event: - A black map pin icon next to the text "SCOTTISH PARLIAMENT". - A black calendar icon next to the text "30 SEPTEMBER 3-5 pm". In the background at the bottom is a black-and-white stylised graphic of the Scottish Parliament building.

Kelp forests play a vital role in supporting healthy marine ecosystems. Their presence creates a complex habitat that provides shelter & feeding areas for many animals.

Their #NatureChampion is Sanne Dijkstra-Downie MSP in collaboration with Marine Conservation Society & Scottish Wildlife Trust

Restoring biodiversity goes hand in hand with climate action.

Natural woodland regeneration and colonisation could help Scotland meet its net zero targets. But to do so, we must change how we fund & support forestry.
