About the Campaign
This campaign is just beginning. We expect it to grow rapidly over the coming months. And we expect it to unfold in two stages.
First we want to gather as many supporters as possible - both organisations and individuals. We want to attract people who are already involved in restoration projects, as well as people and organisations who have related interests in the environment. So if you support our demand, please sign up and join us!
Then, once the campaign is being backed by a wide range of supporters, we want to take it to the public and gain endorsement from people all over the world. The aim is to increase the amount of ecological restoration taking place worldwide and to put the concept of 'restoration' at the heart of the effort to renew the world's environment. The work to combat climate change and address shortages of resources such as water is also essentially 'restoration'. It's all about restoring damaged ecosystems and bringing them back to their natural cycle. But the specific demand of this campaign is to give a higher profile to physical restoration of the environment.
The campaign has been initiated by the Earth Restoration Service, with advice, guidance and encouragement from others involved in ecological restoration worldwide - but we want it to belong to everyone who signs up and have as broad a range of supporters as possible.
