It is timely to note (http://www.guardian.co.uk/environment/2008/oct/13/conservation) that the National Trust has suggested that 200 miles of the south-west of England's coast is likely to disappear in the next 50 years due to rising sea levels. The endangered locations include Studland and Brownsea Island in Dorset.
This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.
