Conservation Conversations


What is the Point of Them?

I intend to put numbered commentaries on news items that raise issues of the kind covered in the oral presentation sessions of the Dorset Field course (Biz 352) and Biom22. These are not intended to be 'in depth' analyses (or even a recipe for an answer- we repeatedly emphasize that many of these issues have no 'right' answer) but will flag some the positive and negative arguments that students might consider using when making their interjections. It is hoped that reading such conversations will help students to develop an 'on their feet' analytical style that will help them with the exercise (and, perhaps in their professional lives, when dealing with complex environmental issues).

Seeing the Changes 2016

Further flowers in Bynea. Pineapple mayweed ( Chamomilla suaveolens ) and feral Cultivated apple ( Malus domestica ) put in appearances.
