The government resets the bet on the wetlands

“The government resets the bet on the wetlands’

‘ the Government shall restore the bet on the Swedish wetlands that disappeared from the budget in the autumn, when parliament adopted the Conservatives and the christian democrat’s draft budget, reports the Swedish Radio Ekot.”

“the Purpose of the three-year våtmarksplanen, which was adopted in 2017, was to strengthen biodiversity and increase the contribution to the groundwater.”

“Now put the government back 200 million for half a year, which will go to the våtmarkssatsningar.”

“– We see that there is a huge need to enhance nature’s own ability to buffer the water that comes from rain, and that we should raise groundwater levels now when we see how climate change and the drought hit last year, says the environment and klimatminister Isabella Lövin (MP), to the Echo.”
