How can developers successfully balance their objectives with local nature objectives? With Tom Butterworth

Joined by Tom Butterworth, Head of Ecology UK for WSP, who works to support clients with meeting their objectives and targets for development together with their objectives for natural capital and nature.


In this podcast episode we focus on the developers role: is it possible to successfully balance development objectives with local nature objectives?  And if so, how can it be done to get the best gains for each party? 


Tom draws on his experience working in the environment-development sector, and how it's evolved as the BNG policy has come through.  We discuss how green space affects sale value, the social aspect, resistance in the industry and the change that is coming.
