The purpose of this week is to draw attention to the “highly undesirable animals and plants that are not in the Netherlands may be because they are native species, displace them, says a lawyer Wilfred Reinhold, the platform is the Stop invasive non-native species. “In fact, all of the provinces are already going to have to be that exotic, but only in the province Gelderland, and Utrecht, holland, is now complete. While these plans are mandatory under European law.”

Europe is in a so-called Unielijst formulated with 66 of undesirable species, such countries need to be addressed. In addition, the provinces have their own types of naming, that they want to be out of the way. Examples of this are, according to Reinhold, the Japanese knotweed, the American bird cherry, and the watercrassula. The birds are spreading and sometimes the seeds of invasive plant species, but it is by far the most exotic plants and animals in the environment by private parties.

And it does not always work out.”

Next week, there are a variety of lectures and workshops on invasive non-native species. In some places, people may have to help with the removal of the unwanted plants. Because of the coronamaatregelen everything is done on the book weekvandeinvasieveexoten.nl
