The Planning Bill "would have the effect of reducing the level of environmental protection... As drafted, the provisions are a regression."

Last year the EU challenged the UK's closure of industrial sandeel fishing in its waters.
These closures are a lifeline for the millions of seabirds which rely on sandeels for food.
Reversing them would be a blow for hungry Puffins, Kittiwakes, and other birds.

We commissioned an expert legal opinion that concludes the Government's assertion that the Planning & Infrastructure Bill 'would not reduce the level of environmental protection provided by existing law' is "obviously wrong as a matter of law". #PlanningBill

We're thankful to hear that Wisdom, the world's oldest banded bird, has returned to Midway Atoll for the breeding season AND has already laid an egg! At 74+ years old, Wisdom is changing our understanding of #seabird biology. Welcome back & congrats! #ornithology friendsofmidway.org/wisdom-was-s...

Puffins, Kittiwakes, Razorbills—the UK’s decision to end sandeel fishing was a hard-won lifeline for our struggling seabirds.
