Fund the planting of wildflowers along all public green spaces

We would like the Government pledge funding to plant a 1-meter wide strip of wildflowers along the length of every public green space (i.e. playing fields, grass verges etc). Councils would be allocated a grant to achieve this target. The target would be set by the Government.

The data shows the UK has experienced extinctions and declines in abundance, biomass and distribution of insects. Declines in abundance or distribution have been seen in bees and hoverflies, butterflies and moths, beetles, and freshwater insects. There are a variety of drivers behind insect decline, such as habitat loss, chemical use and climate change, and their impacts differ across habitat, species and time.
