Total Quantity or Scope

Nature and Us has been involving the people of Wales in developing a vision for the future of the natural environment. We wish to bring all the conversations and involvement undertaken so far together through recruiting a representative group of citizens in Wales to agree on the shared vision for 2050, and the steps / milestones needed to get there. The group will consist of a representative sample of Welsh citizens – reimbursed for their time – to ensure the diversity of views from across Welsh communities are heard, identifying where there is a a consensus, but just as importantly identifying the remaining contentious issues, setting out current understanding of what differences remain.
