Optimism

Monday 8th February 2021

Today one of my lectures was focused on cultural ecosystem services - very difficult to define and to measure - but fundamentally how ecosystems contribute to well being. How do we value them - they are priceless and have an intrinsic value but financial value?

I was doing more research today around climate change - it can be very depressing - difficult to find good news so I will share this website 7 stories of optimism this week (01.02.21-08.02.21) - Conservation Optimism

Every week they share positive stories of wildlife conservation from around the world - something to cheer you up on a Monday!

On another positive note I am progressing with the breadmaker - this is todays work - the first one made from scratch rather than a packet! I have to say it is the best looking so far - cant comment on the taste yet - will let you know!
