Building upon the concept of mainstreaming social sciences within conservation, we consider their mainstreaming, and so integration, within UK environment policy and practice (EPP) organisations. The paper responds to increasing calls to recognise th... Read More about Mainstreaming social sciences expertise in UK environment policy and practice organisations: retrospect and prospect.

Biochar in the British print news media: an analysis of promissory discourse and the creation of expectations about carbon removal (2023)
Journal Article

Biochar is amongst a growing suite of approaches developed to address the climate crisis by removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere; yet public awareness of biochar is low. In this situation, mass-media reporting plays an important role in making...

Searching for the “politics of the possible” in flexitarianism (2023)
Journal Article

The paper builds on recent flexitarianism scholarship by approaching this heterogeneous dietary category as a socio-cultural and political economic, rather than just a psychological phenomenon. It does this by drawing on Edmund Harris’s conceptualiza... Read More about Searching for the “politics of the possible” in flexitarianism.
