Our Story
In recent years – nearly 60% of ALL wildlife has been lost. At the same time, four in five young people are ‘disconnected’ from Nature. Being disconnected means you don’t have an appreciation or feel a sense of responsibility for nature.
When you’re disconnected from nature, of course, you don’t care that it is disappearing. People continue to blame technology, too much time on screens, not enough outside.
Naturebytes is a growing community of engineers, scientists, educators and enthusiasts all helping to create new ways to reconnect with wildlife.
Our programmes can be used by anybody to develop digital skills that enable you to see the natural world in ways that weren’t possible before.
