Fish kills occur periodically in The Broads, caused by abnormally strong saltwater tides or toxic algae blooms.<\/p>\n<p>However, local anglers, conservationists and officials say the kills are getting worse each time &#8211; an illustration of intensifying threats to the ecosystem due to climate change impacts, including sea level rise, as well as human activity from farming to homebuilding. Britain is a member of the newly-signed U.N. Global Biodiversity Framework &#8211; which has a goal to protect 30% of the world&#8217;s land and seas by 2030, known as 30-by-30. It also recently set its own new legally-binding environmental targets. Experts say what happens in The Broads may illustrate how effectively both of those goals will be met. The national park, which spans Norfolk and Suffolk counties, is home to a quarter of Britain&#8217;s rarest animals and plants.<\/p>\n<p>A recent study in the journal Nature estimated that Britain has lost more than 75% of its wetlands over the last 300 years. Environmentalists are also concerned about climate change impacts on the ecosystem with projected sea level rise, harsher droughts and stronger storms set to affect species conservation.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/uk\/climate-hit-wetlands-lay-bare-britains-biodiversity-struggle-2023-04-26\/\">Reuters<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/5-360\/\">Climate-hit wetlands lay bare Britain&#8217;s biodiversity struggle<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[444,1124,575,9316],"class_list":["post-113773","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-biodiversity","tag-britain","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-wetlands"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113773","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=113773"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/113773\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=113773"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=113773"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=113773"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
