It has been officially admitted that the UK will miss most of its 2020 targets for the conservation of the natural world (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/mar/22/ukmiss-almost-all-2020-nature-targets-official-report-admits). We do seem pretty good at assuming we are enlightened about our environment without putting in the cash to achieve even self-selected aims.
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.
