Green roofs have long been in vogue in Scandinavia but there now is a plan to upscale the approach for much larger buildings in the city of Utrecht in the Netherlands (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/mar/27/utrecht-rooftops-greened-plants-mosses-vertical-forest). I have long had a sneaky regard for Utrecht having lived there for a few months in the early 1970s. Many of the things they are attempting on living and transportation seem to be innovative and brave.
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.
