The Natural World - Biodiversity |
|

|
|
In simple terms 'Biodiversity' means the variety of all forms of life - plants, animals, insects, etc. and the landscapes or habitats in which they live. We have a duty to protect our local natural environment, both for its own sake, and for ourselves and future generations.
Boston Borough Council is a signatory to the Lincolnshire Biodiversity Action Plan (BAP) which contains action plans for a range of habitats and species that require conservation action. Although the Borough is intensively farmed, it contains almost two-thirds of the priority habitats identified in the Lincolnshire BAP.
