EU parliament votes in favour of the Nature Restoration Law on July 12th

The European Parliament voted for legally binding targets to protect and restore nature in the European Union.. Until the last moment it was not sure if the law would pass, it was a very narrow margin, 336 votes in favour and 300 against the law.

The new law will require countries to introduce measures to restore nature on a fifth of their land and sea area by 2030.

The final text still in "development" but should be ready before the EU Parliament elections in 2024.

"As another unprecedented heatwave grips Europe, it’s clear that to survive climate breakdown and ensure food supplies we’ll need nature on our side"
