| Description | Since 1975, Landlife, an urban wildlife charity based in Merseyside, UK, has taken a new approach to creating urban wildlife habitats, developing the philosophy of creative conservation. One special type of site for creative conservation is the green roof, which involves creating a complete habitat from the substrate to the plants. Using creative conservation to provide habitats for invertebrates has had special attention from UK charities, such as Buglife, and projects like 'urban buzz' aimed at pollinators. Rewilding energies could help break down urban-rural divides by using creative conservation with its people and cultural perspectives to safeguard and improve urban environments and wildlife. Creative conservation provides a flexible framework that can respond to change and adapt to the inbuilt chaos of natural systems. In the face of climate change, nature conservation in Britain will have to adapt particularly through creative conservation techniques including building wildlife corridors through urban areas.
