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.

The health trackers monitor skin temperature, as well as heart and breathing rates. It's suggested that, combining the health trackers with artificial intelligence systems, would be a very effective and inexpensive way of rapidly diagnosing Covid19 infections.
