Welcome to the NPUK
News Page. Here you will find news and information
not only relating to Naturepark UK but also
regarding conservation and other relevant topics.
Please feel free to
email comments and suggestions for publication.
January 2012:
-All the best wishes to Nature and Man from
Naturepark UK.
December 2011:
-Merry Christmas to nature and the world!
-For
the attention of everybody: The main sponsor of Naturepark UK is working on their website. Male,
family complete? Contact
www.naturepark-uk.org/vasectomy.htm for
the ultimate solution!
-The problem of a growing rat population in Britain
was brought to our attention. One of the causes it
the "throw away" food culture not only encouraging
the proliferation of rats but also of seagulls and
pigeons. Please dispose of your waste responsibly!
November 2011:
-BBC
on deer numbers in Britain: Whilst not objecting
to tasty venison Naturepark UK strongly objects to
this blame interpretation. Surely 60 million humans
do more damage to songbirds than deer... Talking
cull now?
-Naturepark
UK does not object to anybody enjoying "Chinese
lanterns", but please ensure they are 100%
biodegradable and do not contain wire. Farm and wild
animals can injure themselves to a point where
entangled wire in their mouths causes them to starve
to death!
October 2011:

September 2011:
-First wolf sighting in the Netherlands:
If
it is a channel swimming wolf then there might be
hope for England!
-Naturepark UK added
naturenet to the list of
appropriate links.

doubts that we in the UK have a problem with nature
and rewilding:

-NPUK
Field Trip to
Kielder Forest:

Why we do not actively establish
Wild Boar and
Lynx in this area is beyond understanding.
August 2011:
-To
come soon: The Naturepark UK campaign vehicle!
July 2011:
-Naturepark UK is firmly opposed to any notion of
culling badgers. The evidence for any success of
such an act to reduce bovine tuberculosis is poor
and the typical insular attitude of "don't like it -
kill it" should really belong into the past.
June 2011:
-A
very big thank you to the wonderful late Alice
Davidson and her family for supporting Naturepark
UK!
May 2011:
-Must be mad but we are back on facebook:

UK signed up with
Affilyon for sponsored internet searches. Please

violations we have decided to take the Naturepark UK
Group off Facebook. Many thanks to all supporters

fading energy and

January 2011:
-Naturepark UK asks
Environment Secretary Caroline Spelman for support:
Dear Madam,
Writing to you was prompted by your letter to the
Guardian as posted on the "Biodiversity is Life"
website.
My name is Dr.Jens Stahlschmidt, I am the CEO of
Naturepark UK Llimited, a not for profit
organisation accepted as a charity by the Inland
Revenue under the number XT24666.
The Naturepark UK project plan consists of three
stages:
1st. The Concept: Conservation efforts must maintain
or even further biodiversity, utilising a faster
than natural change of the environment in order to
generate profits and therefore guarantee
sustainability.
2nd. An agroforestry pilot project will provide
evidence that an integrated use of land allows to
utilise natural recourses sustainable and profitable
whilst increasing biodiversity at the same time.
3rd. Expansion of the project area.
Naturepark UK is currently trying to gain support
from the European Commission, DEFRA and corporate
sponsors via voluntary CO2 offset.
I would ask you kindly to assess our online project
plan in order to gain your feedback and possible
support: http://www.naturepark-uk.org/agroforestry.htm
Yours faithfully
Dr.Jens Stahlschmidy
CEO Naturepark UK Ltd.
