People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Amid increasing urbanisation and biodiversity decline, ‘effective stewardship’ of urban green space (UGS) is a complex but critical nature‐based solution for long‐term environmental, social and economic gain. Combining stewardship and sense‐of‐place frameworks with European nature‐based solutions guidance, we investigate which social and ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Attempts to address biodiversity loss have led to ecosystem and species restoration efforts. Tree species restoration is particularly relevant because of increasing threats from pests and pathogens. However, there are different notions of ‘loss’, as well as sociocultural considerations, including social acceptability, which are often neglected

How can children and young people have a voice in urban treescapes?
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Scientific understanding of climate change has, to date, failed to result in sufficient action. This paper proposes that a deficit model of top‐down learning and dissemination in relation to public engagement with science may be part of the problem, particularly when considering the attitudes, values and empowerment of children and young ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract While the physical and mental health benefits of greenspace exposure are well documented, ethnic minority communities in the United Kingdom continue to engage with these environments at disproportionately lower rates. This persistent disparity points to an oversight in existing literature, specifically regarding how these communities navigate ...

Embodied urban design: Fostering nature connectedness for pro‐conservation behaviour
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Those who feel more connected with nature are more likely to act in ways that support biodiversity. How connected people feel with nature depends in part on how meaningfully it figures into their experience of the built environment. Despite an increase in urban greening measures, these approaches often overlook how people perceive, interact ...

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties
Polymer International, EarlyView.The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...
