Postdoctoral research associate, Tadhg Carroll discusses the utility and possible implications of viewing recent biodiversity change, as adaptation to shifting environments.

Postdoctoral Researcher Brennen Fagan discusses debates centred on biodiversity.

Introduced species are often a complex and contentious issue. Jack Hatfield discusses the case of stoats on the Orkney Islands.

PhD student Hien Luong reflects on how he became a researcher at the University of York and how he aims to bring together the disparate worlds of nature conservation and money from the Financial Markets.

Post doctoral researcher, Michael Stratigos, discusses how protected areas are now set to become a key tool in the fight against declines in Biodiversity. Following the Montreal-Kunming COP15 which has seen many national governments pledge to protect 30% of land and sea for the protection of nature by 2030 (the 30 by 30 target), protected areas will see rapid expansion and many other existing designations will be adapted to ensure greater protection of biodiversity.

Jack Hatfield discusses to what extent we can intentionally shape ecosystems and invites your thoughts on the matter.

Postdoctoral Researcher Brennen Fagan reflects on loss in research, and how some researchers move forward.

In the new research paper published in People and Nature, led by post doctoral research associate Michael Stratigos, an important archaeological dataset, Historic Landscape Characterisation, has been brought to bear on how protected areas are biased not only for certain types of physical landscapes and habitats, but also to certain types of historic cultural landscapes.

What is natural is beautiful. This belief underpins the United Kingdom's policy on National Parks, with National Parks explicitly committed to preserving and enhancing the UK's 'natural beauty'. But what is 'natural'? And what is 'beautiful'?, PhD student Jonathan Gordon asks.

Postdoctoral research associate Tabitha Kabora reflects on the UN Biodiversity Conference COP15, the Global Biodiversity Framework and African development and conservation challenges.

Jack Hatfield discusses his own work and other recent developments regarding European mammals.
