What is nature recovery?

​Nature recovery involves reversing environmental damage and restoring ecosystems that have been degraded, aiming to revive biodiversity and reestablish natural processes. Nature recovery involves a broad range of activities aimed at reviving biodiversity, including protecting endangered species, restoring ecological processes, and improving natural habitats. Habitat restoration, a key part of nature recovery, focuses specifically on rehabilitating environments—such as forests, wetlands, grasslands, or rivers—to their natural state by removing pollutants, reintroducing native plants and animals, and managing invasive species. These efforts aim to create healthier ecosystems, improve resilience to climate change, and restore the natural balance needed to support wildlife and human communities alike.

benefits of nature recovery

We offer nature recovery in the South west, but what are the benefits? Nature recovery offers numerous benefits, including the restoration of biodiversity, which strengthens ecosystems and makes them more resilient to environmental changes. It helps improve air and supports the sequestration of carbon. Through natural landscaping and habitat restoration, nature recovery also promotes healthier soil, boosts pollinator populations, and enhances food security. Here are some other benefits of nature recovery:
​✓ Biodiversity improvement
Helps revive populations of endangered species and supports a wider range of plant and animal life.
✓ Water quality enhancement
​
Improves the natural filtration of water bodies, reducing pollution and promoting cleaner water.
✓ Ecosystem resilience
Strengthens ecosystems' ability to withstand environmental changes and recover from disturbances.
✓ Climate change mitigation
Restored habitats, like forests and wetlands, absorb carbon dioxide, reducing greenhouse gases.

Action with Care

We use specialist equipment to reduce impacts on the ground and to avoid damaging habitats as much as possible.

✓ Low ground pressure tracks ✓ Tilt-rotators ✓ Grab equipment

faqs

Why is nature recovery important
​It is essential for restoring biodiversity, combating climate change, improving air and water quality, and ensuring the health and well-being of both wildlife and human populations.
How does nature recovery benefit biodiversity
​By restoring habitats and ecosystems, nature recovery provides a suitable environment for native species to thrive, helping endangered species recover and promoting genetic diversity.
What is the difference between nature recovery and habitat restoration
Nature recovery is a broader concept that includes biodiversity protection, ecological process restoration, and species conservation. Habitat restoration focuses specifically on rebuilding degraded environments to their natural state. We cover the South west areas including Cornwall, Devon, Somerset and Bristol for nature recovery and habitat restoration services.
How does nature recovery help combat climate change
​Healthy ecosystems, such as forests, wetlands, and oceans, act as carbon sinks, absorbing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and mitigating the impacts of climate change.
How long does nature recovery take
​The timeframe varies depending on the scale of degradation and the type of ecosystem. The initial work is completed quickly however some restoration projects can take a few months to years, while others could take longer to fully recover naturally.
