It's a bit 'end of the World' but one can't help agree that the evidence for serious, life-threatening, human generated climate change is overwhelming (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/feb/02/the-devastation-of-human-life-is-in-view-what-a-burning-world-tells-us-about-climate-change-global-warming). The main source of frustration (for some of us) is that many of the current crop of politicians and company representatives appear to treat climate change as an inconvenience but something the next generation can worry about.
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.
