An alliance of 100 nature conservation organisations across Europe including the RSPB, WWF and Friends of the Earth are joining forces to defend the EU Nature Directives which have underpinned conservation in the UK and Europe for the last 30 years. The alliance warns that the European Commission's REFIT 'Fitness Check' of the Birds and Habitats Directives is the single biggest threat to UK and European nature and biodiversity in a generation. The EC has launched a 12-week public internet consultation, open to all.
