Protect the Knepp rewilding estate from Horsham DC's housing developments.

Knepp rewilding estate contains 1400 hectares of the most precious and biodiverse habitat in the British Isles. Rewilding can help save the world, and Knepp is the UK's most important research site. But Horsham District Council think building 3500 houses is worth destroying this site of unimaginable value.

To sacrifice so precious a site for 3500 houses is breathtakingly short-sighted and greedy. Horsham DC will be shamed for all time if they are allowed to go ahead. Flood them with letters, write to Jeremy Quin MP to raise the issue in parliament, have friends and family sign this petition. Read "Wilding" by Isabella Tree to understand the immense importance of Knepp and rewilding. Understand that no amount of houses in Horsham compares with Knepp, one of the UK's most precious jewels.

Horsham DC must ensure that this development has zero negative impact on Knepp Estate. Jeremy Quin, MP for Horsham, must raise this issue in parliament. The government must protect its most valuable environmental experiment.
