‘The UK is one of the world’s most nature-depleted countries. The headline finding in the State of Nature Report 2023 told us that one in six species is at risk of extinction but this alarming figure obscures greater decline within certain taxonomic groups: 21% of plant species, 39% of vertebrates and 11% of fungi and lichens are classified as being at risk of extinction in Great Britain.’
