Started the week with an exchange with DG ENER @EUCommission for NABU. Showing implementation gaps for RED-III in Germany. And in general stressing: we need more #renewables. But only with good spacial planning and public participation for acceptance. Not at the cost of nature! #RestoreNature
Ich liefer noch 3 Fotos von der #Tourenski - Kurzpause nach. Weils schön war, und mir die Berge und die Natur wichtig sind! #RestoreNature
Nature is so beautiful. But men are screwing it up. Because non-progressive politicians (in power: mostly the conservatives) instead of protecting it still allowing to burn fossils, to destroy peatlands & to mass-produce meat!

Ja, wir NGOs, u.a. NABU mit unserem Dachverband BirdLife, Euronatur und der WWF pochen auf Geld für den #Naturschutz im EU-Haushalt. Weil das ist Geld für den Schutz von uns Menschen! #Money4Nature #EUBudget #RestoreNature
@afewbugs Yes to ball games but no to golf.
I draw a line at golf. Turn golf courses into public parks, common land and nature reserves instead or rewild them. #RestoreNature #EndGolf
Have to say I love the comms campa from Greens EFA on nature (not only because they also cover the Black Forest): we must protect what protects us, EU's Nature Laws! #Natura2000 #RestoreNature #EUGreenDeal
With @EUCommission amending the Habitats Directive I have a déjà vue: In 2015 with #NatureAlert (and @EU_ENV) we defended EU's Nature Directives. Lawmakers must not mess up this cornerstone legislation when even more #RestoreNature and #Natura2000 action is needed! PS: T-Shirt intended as gift for @vonderleyen!
Breaking: @vonderleyen just proposed to downgrade the protection of #wolves. This is the wrong decision & will not help farmers. In times of #nature + climate crisis we need more action, not less. The EU's Habitats Directive is fit & must stay untouched! #RestoreNature #NatureAlert #EUGreenDeal
What does #rewilding mean to us at Rewilding Britain?
It’s not just about restoring nature –
it’s about creating a thriving future where nature takes the lead

The #rewilded #GolfCourses teeming with life
Jocelyn Timperley, February 14, 2025
"From #Scotland to #California, golf courses are being rewilded – with lofty aims to benefit both people and #nature.
"Sinking into nature comes easy at the #PlockOfKyle. I visit this tiny wedge of parkland on the west coast of Scotland, just across the bridge from the Isle of Skye, on a rainy day in late September, and park ranger Heather Beaton and I spend the afternoon wandering around its various #ecosystems-in-miniature.
"We clamber over rocks at one of its little hidden natural harbours. We freeze as black darter dragonflies land on her pink shoe by a pond. And we bend to peer at circles of huge mushrooms which have sprung up overnight in its tiny woodland.
"A #WildflowerMeadow, ponds, scrub habitat, coastline and even an area of peat bog can be found on this little 60-acre (24-hectare) plot, which boasts roe deer, otters, lizards, eels and a huge array of insects and birds. 'We do describe it as a microcosm of Scotland,' says Beaton. 'If you think of all of the major habitats of Scotland, we've got them here on the Plock, just in miniature.' It's an impression she works to cultivate. 'The more little pockets we have, the more chance a person has to... end up having a nature experience,' she says.
"All of these habitats had fallen into serious disarray until a few years ago, says Beaton. In fact, most of this area used to be a golf course.
"The Plock is part of a small but significant global trend of land once used for golf being turned back over to nature. From #California to #Pennsylvania and #Australia to #Canada, these projects are reaping in some big rewards for both #biodiversity and local people."

Building bridging structures, involving regional facilitators & managing actor expectations are key to motivating & empowering farmers for collaborative agri-environmental governance at landscape scale.
Happy to share this perspective with experiences from the #KOOPERATIV project (in which we established 250 ha perennial flower areas cooperatively), now out in "People and Nature". S. Schüler et al.

It will ensure legal certainty while significantly reducing administrative workload.

Der NABU hat wieder ziemlich geile Plakate zur #Bundestagswahl aufgelegt. Und trifft den Nagel auf den Kopf. Das ist das Wachstum und die Freiheit die ich sehen möchte liebe Politiker*innen! #RestoreNature #ActTheFuckNow #GehWählen
Important win for @greenpeace_de NL supported by i.a. VBN in the #Nitrogen case. Court ruling shows that NL government needs to continue to make #agriculture sustainable, with less meat etc. This is good for people & health, water and nature! #RestoreNature #Casework https://www.greenpeace.org/nl/algemeen/56408/waarom-greenpeace-een-rechtszaak-voor-de-natuur-voert-en-tegen-het-trage-stikstofbeleid/#:~:text=Als%20de%20stikstofuitstoot%20van%20de,meest%20kwetsbare%20natuur%20te%20redden
Second work event of the day: Wind & Waves. It's about speeding up renewables, but not at the cost of nature. PS: spatial planning key! Thanks @umwelthilfe for organizing and MEP Jutta Paulus for joining! #RestoreNature
#EUGreenDeal: Commissioner Roswall presenting her view on the #Water Resilience Strategy. Thanks to BaWü Minister Walker & MEP Bentele for diskussing. We imo need:
- Efficiency & quantitative targets
- Fair & polluter pay pricing, not Megabassines
- Nature based solutions, WFD & #RestoreNature
