It's amazing but, in spite of some of their own people warning of the dire consequences of climate change, the world's banks have invested more than £2.2 trillion in fossil fuels (oil, gas and coal) since the Paris agreement (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2020/mar/18/global-banks-climate-crisis-finance-fossil-fuels). It seems that profits always trump prudence.
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.
