State of the South West Environment 2010

Environmental organisations throughout the South West are committed to producing one environmental evidence base that will inform our decision making. It should be taken into account when developing policies and plans for future prosperity.
This evidence base will help us to understand the extent and consequence of environmental pressures in the region. It will also help us to monitor whether our actions and activities are making real improvements on the ground, as well as effectively communicate this progress in order to make the appropriate, evidence-based, decisions. It will also help to inform the debate about how the region can develop a model of growth within environmental limits, develop urban environments that enhance our quality of life and landscapes that can support our species and habitats.
This evidence base also supports the development and future monitoring of the South West Environment Network's (SWEN) Environmental Priorities.
These priorities have been collectively agreed to be the most important outcomes required for making sure our environment provides for our needs, within the overarching vision of One Planet Living.
