LONDON(Reuters)- Britain needs to spend up to one billion pounds a year to protect easily destroyed English wildlife habitats from climate change, intensive(集约)farming and population growth, a government-backed report said on Friday.
It urged the government to transform conservation policy in the next 40 years to avoid a devastating loss of the countryside that supports thousands of important plants, trees and animals.
British ecologist John Lawton, who led the year-long study, said England’s wildlife habitats are too small and isolated to protect many species from increased strains in coming decades.
Creating a stronger, better connected network of well-managed habitats will cost between 600 million pounds and 1.1 billion pounds each year, the report estimated(估计).
Failure to act could lead to the loss of areas rich with diverse species, such as meadows, wiids and rivers, the report said. Centuries of human activity have helped to shape these habitats and they will need ongoing management if they are to survive, it said.
The United Nations called on world leaders this week to take bold action to preserve animal and plant species. It says the world is facing the worst losses since the dinosaurs vanished 65 million years ago.
England has at least 55,000 species, including significant levels of bats, bumblebees, wildfowl and mature oak trees.
