Picked up a nature journalling practice as a way to honour the changing seasons (and procrastinate my PhD) 🌾 this week - sycamore seedfall on campus @UniOfYork @Naturalcalendar

Can anyone recommend an in-depth ethnography training course, ideally running in the UK or online in the next few months?

‘It is time for an ambitious and overarching mission to focus policymaking squarely on creating a more equal society. It’s what people want, and our evidence suggests that the benefits would be transformative’

Our landmark book revealed the cost of inequality. Fifteen years later, things have only got worse https://t.co/QScEkU5vaB

Reflecting on all the great conversations and inspiring ideas in Lund last week, and thinking about how to take this energy forwards. #POLLEN2024 was my first conference and it has set the bar very high indeed (and not only because of the cardamom buns) !

[Guy Shrubsole @guyshrubsole]

@LawForNature @paulpowlesland 4/ I've already flagged the Green Party's promise of a new English Right to Roam Act - it's excellent to see this. The @Right_2Roam campaign have a draft English Right to Roam Bill ready to go here: https://t.co/44jOeObBoP

[Guy Shrubsole @guyshrubsole]

So @TheGreenParty manifesto is now out - here's my take on their nature policies.

Most significantly, I think, is their pledge for a new Rights of Nature Act - "giving rights to nature itself".

This would be a transformative shift in how we relate to the rest of nature. 1/

Great to have #LCAB researchers at #POLLEN24 talking about relational and rights-based approaches to landscape restoration in Europe and the importance of balancing the wellbeing, needs and preferences of both humans and nonhumans.

[Nikki Paterson @niktheearthling]

Very happy to have spoken at #POLLEN2024 🐝🌼 this morning, along with @HannaP3TT & @meg_tarrant, about meaningful connections to landscapes & the rights to decide how they might change

[Nikki Paterson @niktheearthling]

A great experience to present my ongoing PhD research in mid-May as part of a stellar line up @AnthropoceneBio, marking five years of our Leverhulme Centre 🌞🌊🌿
