Intimately linked with biodiversity, geodiversity is the non-biological aspect of nature, the physical framework for all life. Often overlooked in nature conservation, it underpins and determines today’s landscape and habitat and provides crucial evidence for our understanding of the evolution of the planet and its wildlife.
With many years' experience of project work in the environment and heritage sector in East Anglia, Tim is a founder member of the GeoSuffolk group and geosites co-ordinator for the Norfolk Geodiversity Partnership. He has published books, papers and reports on geological subjects, and has originated two Earth heritage trails. He is a tutor for the Biodiversity & Environmental Education Society; former honorary president of the Geological Society of Norfolk and of the Norfolk & Norwich Naturalists’ Society; winner of the David Wood National Landscape Award, 2021.
In this webinar, Tim will share his passion for valuing and conserving our Earth heritage and communicating the wealth of evidence for past habitats and wildlife which make Suffolk distinctive. "As we fall into a deepening environmental crisis, it is becoming very clear that the physical Earth and its processes are too important to be overlooked and misunderstood", he says. “Suffolk's geological story has much to tell”.
