We have commenced a second phase of fieldwork. Drawing on our ideas surrounding landscape, temporality and climate, we are working with local representatives of some national conservation organisations in order to understand how environmetnal knowledges play out on the ground. We hope to discover how important a sense of and attachment to place is to public participation. This is part of the project I mentioned a couple of months ago that I am still unable to discuss in full – BUT – I will be launching on the site in a few weeks. Yeehah! It will, we hope, enable us to extend recent theorisations of landscape made by geographers into the field of environmental politics and community engagement.
