What is a biodiversity net gain?

Biodiversity net gain is an approach to development that aims to leave the environment in a better state than before the development took place. It involves enhancing or creating habitats for wildlife to ensure that the biodiversity value of the area is increased. This can include measures such as planting new trees and creating wildlife corridors.
