“Land use and policy: challenges when ‘place’ interacts with climate mitigation and sustainability”
Dr Morwenna Spear
Many approaches to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change challenge the way we use land and natural resources. At the same time, climate change itself places new strains on the existing species and ecosystems we are so familiar with in the landscape. Significant changes are likely within our lifetimes. Dr Morwenna Spear will present some of these conflicting demands and reflect on how we interact with landscape in the UK. What do we value and why? How will these expected changes impact our appreciation of landscape? Will we welcome changes in land management if they are for some ‘greater good’ or should such changes happen elsewhere, out of sight?
