E-mail service down: 24/08/2010

We are currently experiencing problems with our email service. As of about 12pm on the 24th August 2010 we stopped receiving emails to all the neyedc.co.uk email addresses. We are working to resolve this issue and do not expect that the service will be down for long but in the meantime we have set up the following email address datasearches@neyedc.org.uk for any urgent business.

If you did send in a data search by email on or after 12pm on Tuesday please be aware we may not have received it so it would be advisable to resend it to the above address.

We apologise for any inconvenience and will update this message as soon as the service is restored.

What is biodiversity?

Biodiversity is quite simply the variety of living things on Earth.

Many aspects of our lives are affected by the natural environment - habitats support life by regulating climate and re-cycling air and water. Animals and plants provide food, clothing and medicines.

Wildlife enriches our lives in lots of other ways too.
