 Suffolk's changing coast - The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
Suffolk's coast urgently needs new habitats created for the benefit of wildlife and people, says a new report published on Tuesday 13 December by five major wildlife and countryside organisations.
'Suffolk's Changing Coast - making space for wildlife and people' says that we need to plan for the replacement of coastal habitats already lost to the sea through erosion and coastal squeeze - and for areas vulnerable to coastal change in the coming years.
The report is written by Renny Henderson and Chris Durdin of the RSPB and endorsed by English Nature, the National Trust, Suffolk Wildlife Trust (SWT) and the Suffolk Coast and Heaths Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Partnership.

 White Admiral 41 - Redgrave and Lopham Fens
The Suffolk Wildlife Trust campaigned for many years to persuade the authorities controlling the water abstraction that they were responsible for the decline of the fen.
A consortium of organisations was then formed: Essex and Suffolk Water (ESW), who operate the bore hole; The Environment Agency (EA), responsible for the River Waveney and abstraction licensing; Suffolk Wildlife Trust, managers of the fen and English Nature, managers of the fen in partnership with the Trust.
The Trust had been making valiant efforts over many years to contain the progress of trees and scrub but it needed the considerable financial resources of the Project to push the scrub back to where it was thirty years ago.

The Wildlife Trusts is the largest grouping of charitable organisations in the United Kingdom concerned with the conservation of the whole of the UK's natural world.

The local Trusts are split into regions; a single Trust covers Scotland; Wales has six Trusts which work increasingly closely together; there are Trusts for Ulster, the Isle of Man, Alderney and the Isles of Scilly and 36 Trusts across England largely based on the old county boundaries or small groupings of such counties.

 FarShores CryptoCorner News: Wallabies Roam Wild In England
It may sound far-fetched, but the fields and woods of east Suffolk may be home to a colony of wallabies usually found living in the wild "down under", on the other side of the world.
Audrey Boyle, of Suffolk Wildlife Trust, said it did appear wallabies were becoming naturalised here but the trust had not received any reports of groups in the county.
Conservationists would be concerned though if the wallaby colonies were large and their presence caused disruption to native wildlife — such as the devastation caused by the mink to the water vole.

GLOBAL warming is the biggest environmental threat facing Suffolk, according to the county's wildlife trust in a call to the G8 countries to deliver on climate change as well as poverty.
Audrey Boyle, trust spokeswoman, said evidence that global warming was under way was now irrefutable and apart from loss of land and habitat, the tourist industry could be hit and changes would be forced upon agriculture.
Scientists say the 1990s was the warmest decade in the last 1,000 years and by the end of this century Suffolk is likely to see an average increase in temperature of between 2.5 C and 4.5 C. “Winters and autumns will become a lot milder and wetter.
