Description

Britain's moorlands are one of the world's rarest habitats, with over three-quarters of the Earth's heather moorland concentrated on its islands. Yet, beneath their tranquil surface, a bitter conflict has emerged in UK conservation. This insightful book sheds light on the hidden issues surrounding moorland conservation, giving voice to those who work and live in these areas, often ignored or overlooked. The fate of Britain's uplands hangs in the balance, and it's essential to consider an alternative narrative from the perspective of those who have cared for these places for generations. This book offers a fresh perspective, exposing the challenges and complexities of moorland conservation. By listening to the experiences of those who work and live in these areas, we can gain a deeper understanding of the issues at hand and work towards a more sustainable future. The author's examination of the current state of UK moorland conservation provides a crucial insight into the challenges facing these unique landscapes.
