Ask your candidate to sign the Rewilding Nation Charter

Let’s elect a Scottish Parliament that commits to nature recovery across 30% of our land and seas.

Scotland is one of the most nature-depleted countries on Earth. As climate breakdown accelerates, the systems we rely on – for our food, clean water and livelihoods – are under threat.

But there is hope. Rewilding doesn’t just bring back our lost wildlife. It’s about:

  • Thriving communities: Creating nature-based jobs and sustainable rural economies.

  • Health and wellbeing: Ensuring every person in Scotland has access to wild, flourishing spaces.

  • Climate resilience: Restoring peatlands and forests to lock away carbon.

We are calling on the next Scottish Parliament to declare Scotland a Rewilding Nation. Together, we can restore 30% of our land and sea by 2030.

The Rewilding Nation Charter

The Rewilding Nation Charter outlines four key principles for rewilding Scotland. We can restore nature – which underpins the food we eat, the air we breath and the water we drink. We can rewild ourselves – embracing coexistence with wildlife and making space for wildness in our day-to-day lives. We need to rewild for people – working together to create a greener, fairer Rewilding Nation. And we need to rewild at scale – reconnecting and expanding the scattered fragments of our remaining nature, allowing wildlife to flourish and helping us tackle climate breakdown.
