  • 12. STATE OF UK NATURE: COP 15 BIODIVERSITY SUMMIT While things are looking up for this common kingfisher, nearly 30% of UK bird species remain threatened with extinction, with 38 million birds having vanished from our skies in the last 50 years. The UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world, and while the UK government made commitments to halt and reverse biodiversity loss by 2030 at December’s COP 15 summit, details about the actions they will take to achieve this remain to be seen. Jen Read, who captured this image, was told her disability would prevent her from doing many things in life. But she is now a wildlife photographer, and echoes the 81% of Brits who believe UK nature is under threat and that more needs to be done urgently to protect and restore it.
