One of the biggest misconceptions about rewilding is that it’s all or nothing.
Either you’re restoring vast landscapes…
Or you’re not really helping.
In reality, rewilding works because of consistency.
What we’ve learned from our projects
In Devon, progress doesn’t come from dramatic moments. It comes from returning, observing, adjusting and letting ecosystems develop over time.
Nature responds best to reliability.
The same principle applies in cities.
Quiet actions create lasting change
Watering a planter.
Letting plants go to seed.
Turning a lawn into a meadow
Resisting the urge to tidy everything away.
These actions don’t look heroic. But they create continuity, and continuity is what ecosystems need.
Urban rewilding thrives when people stop thinking in terms of outcomes and start thinking in terms of care.
Supporting nature doesn’t have to be loud
Not everyone wants to protest, campaign, or overhaul their lifestyle. And that’s okay.
Supporting rewilding can be:
Calm
Regular
Shared quietly with others
A subscription.
A balcony.
A conversation that makes someone notice a bee.
Why this approach matters now
Climate fatigue is real. Doom narratives exhaust people. Rewilding offers something different: a way to participate without burning out.
At LettsSafari, we believe hope grows from action - especially small, repeatable action.
That’s why we focus on what people can do, not what they can’t.
Because when enough people do something, consistently, nature responds.
And it always has.
