What is often overlooked is the joy and sense of purpose that comes from being a volunteer in these kind of projects. Here in the UK we have a large and growing number of people involved in rewilding projects and we can see with our own eyes how species are returning to the evolving environments. The rewilding projects not only improve improved habitats for otherwise shrinking species lists but also act as carbon sinks (peat particularly) as well, of course, as holding water in times of flooding, as we have had this winter.

Great point! We've been very impressed with the rewilding projects in the UK and will be visiting one next May to see it up close!
Great picture!!
Always learning something new from you.
