Unbelievably, it is already time for my last AnthropoSea blog post – how time has flown! When I initially set out to create this blog, I was a little daunted to say the least. I had never before thought of myself as the type of person to blog and much preferred just reading others'! Were then discussed, along with any relevant topics. Monday, 6 January 2014.

Investigating 'the deadly trio' and its threat to marine biodiversity. Monday, 6 January 2014. Today I’ll be discussing a paper by Mendler de Suarez et al. Proposes how we are to deal with the climate change-induced threats facing the ocean and humanity ( 2013. Fundamentally, the paper calls for improved governance, the use of ecosystem-based approaches in coastal and ocean management and urgency in transition to a low-carbon economy.

Taking a look at how human actions and land use changes are affecting biodiversity. Tuesday, 14 January 2014. Issues relating to biodiversity change. I don’t think I can say I’ve ever truly been granted this opportunity through work before, there have been no constraints and I have really free to explore a topic that I am familiar with but in a way that I was totally new and refreshing! I have shared with you my passion for hedgerows which was a particular highlight of mine. The paper states that our tol...

Our palaeolithic ancestors began to use tools in hunting. Source: BBC. Suggest that the use of tools and fire to clea...

Taking a look at how human actions and land use changes are affecting biodiversity. Sunday, 29 December 2013. Anthropogenic Transformation of the Terrestrial Biosphere: A Conclusion.
