GROUP 4
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION IN
FINLAND:
1. ENVIRONMENTAL POLICIES
With a strong record of cooperation on
conservation issues, Finland receives a good
overall score (rank 7) with respect to
environmental policies. Its score on this measure
has improved by 0.3 points since 2014.
5. NATURE CONSERVATION
Finland is party to all the global wildlife conventions
and most regional ones. As part of the programme to
acquire land for nature conservation, it has recently
allocated funds to the protection of habitats
important for threatened species. Good progress has
been made on plants, and conservation programmes
cover more than 50 plant species. A system of fines
for illegal collecting, killing, hunting or removal of
wild plants and animals is a unique way to protect
species.
