Description

English nature faces an unprecedented human-made environmental crisis as thousands of Countryside Stewardship agreements expire at the end of this year.

Over 4,500 farms are affected, threatening to undo years of conservation work.

We'll discuss why we're in this mess - what it could mean for England's nature - and what can be done about it.
