Leading the way in rewilding
& ecological restoration –
REWILDING IS ONE OF THE BEST CLIMATE SOLUTIONS AVAILABLE
COST EFFICIENT
QUICK
SCALABLE
And yet… it is barely mentioned by key policy processes such as the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, or even the UN Convention on Biological Diversity.
The Global Rewilding Alliance aims to change that.
We are commissioning, convening, and publishing top-class science to demonstrate the credibility of rewilding in addressing both the biodiversity AND the climate crises.
As a policymaker, you wield the power to affect substantial change and shape the future of our planet
Your decisions and initiatives can prevent further loss of wildlife and wild areas, create new protected areas on land and at sea, and design a conducive policy and financial environment for rewilding efforts, laying the groundwork for a sustainable, vibrant, rewilded world.
Why Vote on Rewliding
We call for the restoration of wildlife populations to be included in the scope of nature-based climate solutions. These solutions help nature to lock up carbon and adapt to climate change.
THE SCIENCE IS CLEAR
By collaborating closely with scientists, ecologists, and conservation experts, you can make evidence-based decisions actively working on climate change. Our rewilding research published in Nature Climate Change is among the top 5% most impactful scientific papers on Altmetric and has been covered by more than 70 media, including Time magazine, Forbes, Mongabay the Guardian, Grist, and the Washington Post.
LEAD THE WORLD ON REWILDING
Our letter to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity sets out our reasoning and evidence for making rewilding central in key policies on climate as well as biodiversity.
How might you incorporate these insights into your work on national or international policy?
We need national champions to lead the world on rewilding policy; please contact us if your government is interested in joining our growing network of policy actors.
ADVOCATE FOR LONG-TERM COMMITMENT
We need policymakers to advocate for long-term commitment to rewilding goals beyond political cycles.
Ensuring continuity in policies and funding is crucial for the success of large-scale restoration projects.
Not least, this gives the private sector confidence to invest, unlocking substantial capital to create new jobs, often in the most remote, economically deprived areas.
Coming Soon
Rewilding is regarded as the most natural and cost-effective natural climate solution addressing simultaneously biodiversity degradation and climate change in an integrated manner.
