The state of biodiversity in our polluted ecosystems is dismal. In the Netherlands, almost half of all species are under pressure. This must and can be changed. Are we really listening to nature, and are we giving it enough of a voice?

It's time to help our ecosystems and biodiversity. If not, the only animals on earth will soon be living in pig and chicken houses. So: how do we stop the decline? How do we bring back wildlife? And how do we ensure that animals can live a good life?
