9. AJ Climate Champions with Hattie Hartman. In this first of several episodes on landscape and biodiversity, we speak to Guy Shrubsole, policy and campaigns co-ordinator at Rewilding Britain and author of Who Owns England?
Shrubsole explains why land ownership patterns in England are at the root of the housing crisis, the extent to which agricultural practices are responsible for the ecological crisis and how rewilding can help restore biodiversity.
And in a brief news roundup, co-hosts Hattie Hartman and George Morgan discuss the launch of ACAN’s Natural Materials workstream, architecture practice Orms’ new open source Material Passports tool and the RIBA’s Mandatory Competences consultation.
