‘Haunting and unforgettable’ show coming to Dorset<\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n “These habitats are a major step forward in our mission to balance the urgent need for housing with our commitment to protect and enhance Dorset’s natural environment.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The government requires that most development projects leave nature in a better state than they found it.\n<\/p>\n
\n To achieve this, Dorset Council has collaborated with landowners to identify habitat banks.\n<\/p>\n
\n These are areas of land improved for wildlife to replace habitats lost during construction.\n<\/p>\n
\n Developers can purchase ‘biodiversity gain units’ from these sites, fulfilling their planning obligations while aiding local nature recovery.\n<\/p>\n
\n Akshay Sanghrajka of The Ferals said: “Nature recovery and new homes don\u2019t have to be at odds.\n<\/p>\n
\n “We\u2019re helping to make sure that Dorset\u2019s future growth goes hand in hand with thriving wildlife.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The Ferals will be improved over the next 30 years, including creating species-rich wildflower meadows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Ferals, in Tarrant Keyneston, near Sturminster Marshall, has been secured by Dorset Council as the county’s second…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":213455,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[1397,90,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-213454","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-environment","tag-environment","tag-science","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213454","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=213454"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/213454\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/213455"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=213454"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=213454"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=213454"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
