The rapid loss of species is a great threat to nature and us humans. That's why we need a committed policy with effective action at all levels: from the EU, through federal and state governments and lobbying to every one of us, everyone needs to take action. So it is high time to establish an Austria-wide nature protection law that consistently counteracts species loss. Currently, nature conservation is regulated by nine federal states in terms of nature conservation, hunting and fishing. These are 27's various laws that often make it impossible to create good structures on a sufficiently large area. Because nature is limitless and its protection must be the same!
