Wild Service

¿A reckoning with our past and a vision for a new ecological future¿ Amy-Jane Beer ¿Seeks to undo the damage of exclusionary ownership through the transformative power of belonging¿ Guy Shrubsole In May 2022, the Royal Swedish Academy of Science released a paper that measured fourteen European countries on three factors: biodiversity, wellbeing, and nature connectedness. Britain came last in every single category. The findings are clear: we are suffering ¿ and nature is too. Enter ¿Wild Service¿ ¿ a visionary concept crafted by the pioneers of the Right to Roam campaign, which argues that humanity¿s loss and nature¿s need are two sides of the same story. Blending science, nature writing and indigenous philosophy, this groundbreaking book calls for mass reconnection to the land and a commitment to its restoration. In Wild Service we meet Britain¿s new nature defenders: an anarchic cast of guerilla guardians who neither own the places they protect, nor the permission to restore them. Sti
