    🧵 We need to change how our economy works to halt and reverse the decline of nature in Wales by 2030. Social enterprises are already leading the way. We’ve responded to Welsh Parliament's climate consultation outlining what we need to do to support them. 🍃 We know the situation is stark, with WWF Cymru claiming ‘Wales is now one of the most nature-depleted countries on Earth’ in their State of Nature report 2023. We’re backing WWF Cymru’s calls for nature to be at the heart of decision-making. ➡️: https://buff.ly/3YS1m4U 🌍 We need to move away from an economy that takes little account of risk to green spaces and chases profit at all costs. Social enterprises build impactful, sustainable businesses in a different way – by prioritising the well-being of communities, local economies and the planet. ✊ We support inspiring social enterprises to put this idea into action. Bringing local social enterprises into the mission ensures community buy-in and leads to greater awareness of the issue. By working together, we can reverse nature loss and create sustainable, connected communities – and protect and restore nature. 💭 We’ve made recommendations to the Welsh Government (Llywodraeth) to protect and revitalise our beautiful Welsh environment, to engage communities in finding and implementing the solutions needed to do this, and to transform the wider economy to be more sustainable and nature-friendly: 🔵 Make social enterprise and community ownership the business model of choice as part of transforming to a sustainable and nature-friendly economy. 🔵 Promote the community ownership of land and spaces for nature and facilitate this through legislation. 🔵 Expand specialist support to social enterprises to grow and maximise their impact across different sectors. 🔵 Embed a well-being economy approach across economic development policy, ensuring that the well-being of people and planet is at the heart of the economic agenda. 📘 Thanks for reading – you can see our blogpost spotlighting social enterprises who are leading the way for the planet and read the full consultation response.

    🧵 Mae angen i ni newid sut mae ein heconomi’n gweithio i atal a gwrthdroi dirywiad natur yng Nghymru erbyn 2030. Mae mentrau cymdeithasol eisoes yn arwain y ffordd. Rydym wedi ymateb i ymgynghoriad ar yr hinsawdd Senedd Cymru gan nodi’r hyn y mae angen i ni ei wneud i’w cefnogi. 🍃 Gwyddom fod y sefyllfa’n ddifrifol, gyda WWF Cymru yn honni yn eu hadroddiad State of Nature 2023 bod ‘Cymru bellach yn un o’r gwledydd sydd â’r lefel isaf o natur yn y byd. Rydym yn cefnogi galwadau WWF Cymru i roi natur wrth galon gwneud penderfyniadau. ➡️: https://buff.ly/3Mdw6Wr 🌍 Mae angen i ni symud i ffwrdd oddi wrth economi sy’n cymryd ychydig iawn o ystyriaeth o’r risg i fannau gwyrdd ac sy’n erlid elw ar bob cyfrif. Mae mentrau cymdeithasol yn adeiladu busnesau cynaliadwy sy’n cael effaith mewn ffordd wahanol – trwy flaenoriaethu lles cymunedau, economïau lleol a’r blaned. ✊ Rydym yn cefnogi mentrau cymdeithasol ysbrydoledig i roi’r syniad hwn ar waith. Mae dod â mentrau cymdeithasol lleol i’r genhadaeth yn sicrhau cefnogaeth gymunedol ac yn arwain at fwy o ymwybyddiaeth o’r mater. Trwy weithio gyda’n gilydd, gallwn wrthdroi colli natur a chreu cymunedau cynaliadwy, cysylltiedig – a diogelu ac adfer natur. 💭 Rydym wedi gwneud argymhellion i Llywodraeth Cymru i warchod ac adfywio ein hamgylchedd prydferth yng Nghymru, i ymgysylltu â chymunedau i ddod o hyd i’r atebion sydd eu hangen i wneud hyn, ac i drawsnewid yr economi ehangach i fod yn fwy cynaliadwy ac yn fwy cyfeillgar i natur: 🔵 Gwnewch fenter gymdeithasol a pherchnogaeth gymunedol yn fodel busnes o ddewis fel rhan o’r broses o drawsnewid i economi gynaliadwy a chyfeillgar i natur. 🔵 Hyrwyddo perchnogaeth gymunedol ar dir a mannau ar gyfer natur a hwyluso hyn trwy ddeddfwriaeth. 🔵 Ehangu cymorth arbenigol i fentrau cymdeithasol dyfu a gwneud y mwyaf o’u heffaith ar draws sectorau gwahanol. 🔵 Ymgorffori dull economi llesiant ar draws polisi datblygu economaidd, gan sicrhau bod lles pobl a’r blaned yn ganolog i’r agenda economaidd. 📘 Diolch am ddarllen – gallwch weld ein blogbost yn amlygu mentrau cymdeithasol sydd eisoes yn arwain y ffordd dros y blaned a darllen yr ymateb ymgynghori llawn.
