We've been speaking up for Wales' rainforests in the Senedd as part of the Alliance for Wales’ Rainforests! 🎉 Wales’ rare temperate rainforests, remnants of an ancient woodland landscape which now cover less than 1% of the planet, are in danger ⚠️ These magical woodlands host over 400 rare species of mosses, lichens, and other wildlife, acting as biodiversity hotspots and natural carbon sinks 🌿 However, they are under threat from invasive species, habitat degradation, and lack of protection. The Alliance’s new State of Wales’ Rainforests report, launched in the Senedd on Tuesday, is a wake-up call to take immediate action to save these precious ecosystems. The report urges Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government to take urgent action to protect these ecological treasures before it's too late 📢 During this key event Adam Thorogood, Plantlife’s Rainforest Programme Manager spoke passionately about the need for better protection and appropriate management of Wales’ remaining rainforests alongside Neil Lambert, Head of Land RSPB Cymru, Gethin Davies, Celtic Rainforests Wales Project Manager and Tim Birch Head of Advocacy, Wildlife Trusts Wales 🌲 To work towards protecting and restoring these unique habitats, this report was launched as part of the new Alliance for Wales’ Rainforests (AWR) - a partnership of leading conservation organisations working together for a brighter future 🌲 Along with us, the AWR brings together The Woodland Trust Cymru , The Wildlife Trusts Wales, RSPB Cymru, National Trust Cymru & Awdurdod Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri // Eryri National Park Authority. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this landmark event and is speaking up for Wales' rainforests. Together, we can protect this vital part of our natural heritage!
