MSPs have been urged to back calls for the Scottish government to take action to tackle the decline of biodiversity north of the border.
In Holyrood today the Scottish Greens led a debate on the “Declaration of a Nature Emergency,” with a motion outlining measures designed to slow ecological damage.
Representatives from the SNP government, as well as the Tories and Labour, have also submitted amendments, with the Greens seeking to highlight their grave concerns over “the catastrophic collapse in biodiversity globally and in Scotland.”
