“Yorkshire Wildlife Trust”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

The Yorkshire Wildlife Trust is a wildlife trust that covers the Yorkshire and the Humber region of England. When it was founded, it covered the traditional county of Yorkshire, England, but under the 1974 county boundary changes, some of the trust's boundaries were amended to reflect those changes.^[2] The Trust is part of the UK-wide partnership of 47 Wildlife Trusts. It was formed in 1946, as the Yorkshire Naturalists’ Trust, essentially to preserve its first nature reserve Askham Bog on the outskirts of York. It now manages more than ninety reserves^[3] across the county, including some of the best wildlife sites in the UK. These nature reserves cover the diversity of Yorkshire’s landscape, from woodland to grassland, wetland and moorland, fen and bog, and river and coast. One of the flagship reserves is Potteric Carr, a mixed wetland habitat to the south of Doncaster.^[4]

This trust offers a membership card that visitors can use to access the below mentioned reserves:^[5]

Controversy at Spurn

Yorkshire Wildlife Trust received over 2,800 objections to the erection of a £900,000 visitors' centre on the Spurn Heritage Coast, East Riding of Yorkshire, with residents of neighbouring Kilnsea citing visual impact and flooding among their concerns. The planning application was successful on its second attempt in January 2017, after amendments to the original proposals, but despite ongoing concerns of locals.^[6]^[7]
