How is the wholesale destruction of British Countryside good for the environment?
'The
proposed route of HS2 presents a significant risk to five internationally
designated protected wildlife sites, including three Special Areas of
Conservation and two Ramsar sites (wetland sites designated to be of
international importance), which support internationally significant habitats
and species assemblages. The proposed route also presents significant risk to
many other wildlife sites protected by law, comprising 33 Sites of Special
Scientific Interest (of which two are also designated as National Nature
Reserves) and 21 Local Nature Reserves. Additionally, 693 Local Wildlife Sites
(LWS) covering 9,696 hectares (ha) are at risk of being significantly affected
or destroyed under current plans for HS2. Local Wildlife Sites are core
wildlife-rich habitats which play a critical conservation role by providing
wildlife refuges, acting as stepping-stones (in line with Article 10 of the
Habitats Directive), corridors and buffer zones to link and protect nationally
and internationally designated sites. LWS are crucial for improving ecological
coherence and connectivity and contributing to a climate resilient landscape,
and may also be of national wildlife value, despite their ‘local’ designation.'
The WT concludes:
‘This report
concludes that the proposed HS2 scheme will be devastating to the natural
environment by: placing too
many protected sites (and the species that depend on them) under potential risk
of significant impact; frequently
failing to propose adequate and appropriate mitigation and compensation for the
impacts on these wild places; and failing to achieve the commitment to ‘no net loss’ for
biodiversity, let alone Government’s wider commitment in the 25 Year
Environment Plan2. ‘

When is the sleepy UK public ever going to wake up and finally realise that these climate alarmism – promoting clowns in parliament are set to destroy the natural environment with their ill-considered 'green' (lol… as if) wacky policies?
As was most things, the truth frequently resides in the opposite. This is especially evident with the climate alarmists in power. Their misleading narrative and bumbling policies WILL destroy the natural environment.
Keep Her grinning Rishi lad - at ALL costs and always follow Her blessed narrative!
£100 Billion and HS2 will wreck the UK countryside - but it should make St Greta smile, so obviously worth it to look 'ever so green'!
