The conservation charity says its 'frustration' with the government's move to scrap pollution rules in a bid to encourage house building led it to 'attack the people not the policy'.
The government argued the measure would be economically beneficial, adding that new developments contribute a small amount of nutrient pollution, and promised extra funding to offset any increase.The RSPB says it works to protect habitats, save species like puffins, and help end the nature and climate emergency
Current rules prevent new developments in protected areas when they would add harmful nutrients, like nitrogen or phosphorus, into the nearby waters because these can cause algal blooms that deprive other plants and animals of light and oxygen. Originally created to focus on the protection of birds and later awarded a royal charter, the RSPB says on its website that it works to protect habitats, save species, and help end the nature and climate emergency.
