An excellent appointment. I’ve known Ruth Davis for many years & found her to be a determined & effective advocate for Nature. I’m looking forward to working with her in driving progress towards the actual delivery of Nature targets. theguardian.com/environment/20…

So thrilled that the brilliant Ruth Davis is now the UK’s first ever international nature envoy. A woman with insight, warmth and steel. UK appoints first nature envoy to tackle species decline | Conservation | The Guardian theguardian.com/environment/20…
