With nature restoration law, the EU has the opportunity to align with and contribute to global commitments, as well as to pave the way for achieving a synergistic approach to restoration.
This paper highlights the importance of adopting an ambitious EU nature restoration law - given the manifold benefits of restoration to nature, people, and the economy - and discusses what is needed to ensure that the restoration targets are achieved by Member States. It formulates a series of recommendations for Member States and the EU institutions to facilitate the successful implementation of the upcoming law.
