Newsroom Special - Environmental impact of no-deal Brexit

    Newsroom Specials

    Friday, 25 January 2019 - 7 minutes

    Environmental charity, Friends of the Earth, has released a list of sites and species at-risk from a no-deal Brexit.

    The charity says the list aims to bring the environment back onto the agenda within the debate – which they claim has otherwise largely been about trade – and serves to warn of the effect a no-deal Brexit could have on the environment.

    Friends of the Earth is urging the public to sign a petition to help prevent a no-deal Brexit, which they believe threatens our wildlife, health and environment.

    Craig Bennett, Chief Executive Officer of Friends of the Earth, joined us on the line to tell us more.
