Motivated by environmental necessity, India evolved the inherited judicial structure and created a new tribunal, the National Green Tribunal. It operates under innovative procedural rules and holds the prospect to tackle systemic weaknesses in India's nature conservation reality. By retaining Natura 2000 post-Brexit the UK, as well, could develop a given system further - the nature conservation network Natura 2000. A viable option could be the testing of innovative data gathering solutions to tackle the problem of existing scientific knowledge gaps. 1.
