Inclusion 'For the Birds'?

Inclusion appears a very slow process in the UK's 44 Environmental Charities (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/05/environment-sector-has-failed-to-become-more-inclusive-study-suggests). Research commissioned by the Wildlife and Countryside Link (WCL), found that 84% of the charities had considered or were taking action over a lack of inclusion. Only 4% reported, however, that they had a consistently-implemented action plan to increase their staff's diversity. Virtually all the charities consequently believe there are considerable benefits (membership, image and effectivess) to be had from increasing diversity. Few, however, had this issue as a high priority. Lack of diversity was, predictably, most evient in charity leadership positions. The state of the environment should, of course, be an issue for all citizens. No group should feel under-represented.
