Trees for Life launches unique rewilding training scheme in the Highlands.

The British Ecological Society has published a new book on rewilding.

Our current, dominant forms of conservation are not equal to the task of responding to these new realities; we need urgent reforms.

KARA MOSES experienced the wild in Bialowieza, Europe's last primeval forest. Now she wants to share it. She is hosting a wild nature immersion retreat at Bwlch Corog this month

Proponents and opponents of the controversial concept met in London to persuade a live audience to support their stance, writes CATHERINE EARLY

Floods in continental Europe and a record-dry May in Finland’s forests are just two of many examples of climate change in action, says Rewilding Europe. But a new project to harness the carbon sequestration potential of boreal Finland hopes to bring about positive change at a time of intense climate crisis. CATHERINE HARTE reports

The United Kingdom's 46 Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONBs) cover almost one fifth of the country. ELIZABETH WAINWRIGHT explores why they're so much more than just pretty places to visit

The potential of rewilding to halt biodiversity loss could be missed unless it's better understood by policy makers and is included in future environmental legislation, according to a study by the Zoological Society of London. CATHERINE HARTE reports

Everyone is talking about rewilding at the moment. The debate around it is shaking up the conservation sector and public interest in it is huge, with a growing movement of people advocating the restoration of our degraded ecosystems. But what does it really mean to rewild? And how would you go about doing it if you actually have some land?

If we are to survive long into this century and beyond, our society will have to learn to re-indigenize (or rewild) itself - both its people and its environment, writes WILLIAM HAWES

Efforts to address the planetary crisis must include a contemporary spiritual ecology to cultivate the deep humility and fierce resolve required to live sustainably and create a new story about the place of humanity in a post-capitalist world, writes KARA MOSES

The Scottish government has announced that its wild beaver populations will be given the full protection of both UK and EU law. The decision has been welcomed by campaigners who point out all the benefits of beavers to biodiversity, water management and flood control. Now, they say, England and Wales should follow suit.

A new report from Rewilding Britain highlights the positive impact which rewilding the UK's landscapes can have upon flood risk. The report comes as MPs on the Environmental Audit Committee consult on better ways to manage the UK's environment post-Brexit, with many calling for an approach which places nature centre stage.
