The nights are drawing in and so is our energy at Walking with the Land. We reflect on where we’ve got to, and what the autumn/winter season brings for each of us.

As a scientist, exploring the Somerset coast with artist Sara Dudman has been an enriching experience. What did running a mud painting event on Brean Beach teach me?

This summer, travelling to a beautiful part of France made me all the more aware of the detrimental effects of living in a damaged environment. How can we make sure we don’t forget what living on a rich and abundant Earth feels like?

Our society says that if you can count something and make the equations balance you can get things to work. Is this really the way to solve our ecological crisis?

Many of us now work at computers for the majority of our working days. Can the desk be a place where we feel part of the more than human world?

What can we learn from those with whom we share no words? This is my experience of deeply transformational learning from a tribal elder over the course of just a few minutes.

Science’s default assumption is that the more than human world is inefficient until proven otherwise. What does this tell us about how we see the world?

Names are important. They carry with them a deep power of description. They can create resonance or dissonance with people who hear them. Why did we choose the name we have for this blog?

Having spent years trying to solve some of the biggest challenges through technology, I realised that it only ever provided a sticking plaster. What then could make a meaningful change?

I share a profound experience I had with a tree and community in my neighbourhood - the M32 Maple and its protectors. It made me reflect on the voice of nature in our cities and our lives more generally.
