Episode 14. Why Restoring our Moorlands is so Important with Tom Harrisson Cover

14. Why Restoring our Moorlands is so Important with Tom Harrisson

Every year in the UK we are seeing more and more of the impacts of climate change in the form of extreme environmental events such as floods and wildfires. In response we often see huge investments into new infrastructure to protect the most vulnerable areas; but these additions all have a lifespan and an environmental cost. So what if there was another type of solution? A simpler and better one? Could restoring our natural landscapes be the answer to some of the challenges we face? On this episode, the focus is an example of just this, as Elysia is joined by Tom Harrisson, Conservation Works Officer from Moors for the Future, to talk about their incredible work restoring thousands of hectares of land across the Peak District and South Pennines. Protecting communities, restoring culturally significant sites, and safeguarding our water supply and vital biodiversity for the future; make up just some of the many benefits discussed on the show!
