Barriers

Our fifth episode, chaired by Dame Fiona Reynolds, whom John Fanshawe introduces, is on the theme of barriers. Environmental historian Hadrian Cook disputes that characterisation of water meadows, arguing that they're more heroes than villains; Mike Foley, citizen scientist from the Cam Valley Forum provides the current, or rather hopelessly abstracted, problems with water quality in his local chalk streams; Trevor Bishop of Water Resources South East describes the pressures on and planning of water resources at a regional and national level. Timings John and Fiona to 4.15 Hadrian from 4.15 Mike from 24.05 Trevor from 40.38 Q and A from 1.00.14 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
