The first Somerset State of Nature report 2023 provides an important benchmark of how wildlife is faring across our county and follows the national State of Nature Report launched in September 2023. It is produced at a time when the climate and ecological crises are recognised across the globe, and when new legislation is being brought in across the UK with ambitious objectives for nature’s recovery. The UK government has made ambitious pledges to protect at least 30% of land and sea for nature by 2030 - the ‘30x30’ target.
