Indicators of biodiversity in England
Published on Thursday 20 January 2011 at 9:30am
A statistical update of twenty-six indicators, providing an overview of biodiversity in England, are published today.
These show improvements in some aspects of the natural environment for instance in the condition of protected sites, the number of priority species and habitats stable or increasing, and the extent of agricultural land covered by environmental schemes. However, they also show deterioration since 2000 for certain bird populations, certain butterfly populations, some plant diversity, and the extent of invasive species in the natural environment.
