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.

Hi Prof,
The Isle of Wight is currently reeling under impact of the Vestas wind turbine blades facility closing down in Newport - and this is supposed to be 'Eco' Island.
'Eco' so long as it doesn't necessitate wind turbines in our own backyard, apparently - nobody wants them here.
This is not limited to the UK. Apparently, Germans (thought to be keen greens) don't want carbon dioxide stripped from coal-fired power stations to be buried in their back year. Nimbys rule, OK?
