Scotland has in recent years become a haven for investors seeking to buy land for carbon offsetting. But is this delivering the environmental and community benefits that Scotland needs? 🗓️ 4th February ⏰18:00-19:00 📍online Sign up here ⬇️ https://t.co/oJYgrJxZAP

(4/4) We consider the different justice concerns in a range of examples from Scottish nature recovery. We argue that historicizing contexts is crucial for highlighting justice concerns and creating more equitable governance alternatives.

(3/4) Multispecies justice and multi-dimensional justice offer alternative framings of justice and how it can be achieved. Integrating multispecies justice and multi-dimensional justice approaches can inform nuanced analyses of nature recovery projects.

(2/4) We offer a framework for centring justice concerns in the design and delivery of nature recovery projects. The paper builds from the premise that justice considerations can be overlooked in the planning and delivery of nature recovery projects.

(1/4) The paper was written by team of social scientists based at the Leverhulme Centre for Nature Recovery including: @jsplorimer @jonnyjjt @CaitlinHafferty

I'm really looking foward to the Digital Dimensions of Nature Recovery Conference on 7 and 8 November in Oxford. It'll be the first opportunity for me to present some of my doctoral work after defending my viva in the summer! If you want to find out more, get in touch :)

As an ecologist specialising in species' responses to climate change, I am deeply troubled by growing calls pushing for assisted colonisation. Whilst well meaning, this concept is built on a very outdated understanding of how species interact with climate.

For UK readers: 50% off my last book, which offers a window into the Chinese laboratory where unborn children were used to test CRISPR gene editing techniques.

The sixth article in our special issue on #MitigationDeterrence in Env Sci & Pol is now out. Catherine Price and colleagues on expectations of biochar markets in the UK.

✨NEW paper out in Environmental Science and Policy with amazing author team @ellenmartapalm, @valenvogl and Alexandra Nikoleris ✨ We trace ideas of circular carbon in the chemical industry and discuss how they risk leading to mitigation deterrence 🧵1/11

and thanks to @jamespalmer and @biosec_erc for letting me present initial findings in Bristol and Barcelona, and to @digicologies for developing the idea in an initial written piece. Really excited to work together more in the future!

Thanks to @jsplorimer, @NilsMarkusson, @jefri_lund, @FriesenNaima, @danbrockington and @GeoFrancisMasse for helpful comments. A real collective effort.

Excerpt: “Private companies creating apparent ‘solutions’ to climate change, such as technologies that accurately measure nature restoration, are bounded by the need to create a profit-generating measurement product.”

The argument highlights the political ambivalence of increasing measurement accuracy and high-tech measurement. It matters how, and by whom, measurement technologies are used.
