The second paper from my PhD has now been published ✨ This paper explores using a combination of fossil pollen and place-names to provide a broader record of past landscape change and the connections to anthropogenic influences in Leicestershire. Read the full article here: doi.org/10.1177/0959...

Nature is not a blocker to growth. The UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves has claimed that 'The balance has gone too far in the direction of always protecting every bat and every newt.' But how can this statement be true when the UK is one of the most nature depleted countries in the world?🌍
A thriving natural world is the foundation of economic growth and vital for health and wellbeing. Language that pits these against each other is unhelpful and deeply concerning.
