DEFRA annoucing 11th December 2007 " a new ecosystem approach" to Natural
Environment Policy
"This new approach highlights the link between environmental, social and
economic wellbeing. Significant progress has been made in tackling
environmental pollution and degradation. We have achieved improvements in
air and water quality, halted the decline in farmland birds and improved
the condition of many of our nationally important wildlife sites, but
there are still many pressures on the natural environment.
