Urgent.... we need to tell our MPs to support Amendment 130 - as it will bring some protection to nature in this (horrific) new Planning bill. 

It's up to our MPs - they need to hear the pressure from the public, by tomorrow!!.... there is not a minute to lose. The debate is on Thursday in Westminster, before they turn this new bill into an awful law. 

It's easy to find your MP and their email address, by using name, postcode or location.

"TELL THEM TO SUPPORT AMENDMENT 130 - THANK YOU."

In its current form, the Bill introduces a generic approach to addressing the impacts of development on nature. This simply doesn’t work for many impacts of development, like those on most protected species - like bats!

If Amendment 130 stays in, it means 'EDPs' are limited to 'tried and tested' areas where you can deal with issues like nutrients and water at a bigger, strategic level and EDPs could not be applied to protected species and habitats.

Amendment 130 provides a constructive way to ensure a win for development while safeguarding nature by tackling the larger environmental challenges faced by developers.
