  • Investigating the Role of Social Media and Smart Device Applications in Understanding Human-Environment Relationships in Urban Green Spaces
    INVESTIGATING THE ROLE OF SOCIAL MEDIA AND SMART DEVICE APPLICATIONS IN UNDERSTANDING HUMAN-ENVIRONMENT RELATIONSHIPS IN URBAN GREEN SPACES by HELEN VICTORIA ROBERTS A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences College of Life and Environmental Sciences University of Birmingham February 2018 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract Urban green spaces are integral components of urban landscapes and the cultural ecosystem services afforded to human populations by these green spaces are of particular relevance to human and societal well-being. Urban green spaces provide opportunities for human interaction, physical activity and recreation, stress alleviation and mental restoration, economic opportunity, cultural activities and interactions with nature. To understand how these benefits are received by human populations it is vital to understand when and how individuals interact with urban green spaces. The rapid development and uptake of technologies such as smart phones, social networks and apps provides new opportunity to investigate the human interactions occurring in urban green spaces. Using the city of Birmingham as a case study, this thesis aims (i) to demonstrate the utility of data obtained from smart device enabled platforms (social networks and apps) in understanding socio- ecological interactions in urban areas and (ii) to evaluate the utility of these data sources for researchers and policy makers.

  • Sandwell Council's Demonisation of One Avian
    SANDWELL COUNCIL’S DEMONISATION OF ONE AVIAN SPECIES A report and investigation by I. Carroll Swanwatch/Save Our Sandwell Canada Geese Introduction MONSTROUS LIES- to kill a honking bird? The Canada goose has lived in the United Kingdom since introduced here by the land owning class who transported them here as “slaves” for shooting and ornamentation in the 17th Century. Ever since then it seems that it has been depreciated by the same set of people in the land management industry into whose ordered little anal worlds enters the word “conservation”. The first form of propaganda towards a “non-native” species like the humble Canada is to create a series of myths about how dangerous it is, how much it costs the “precious” economy, and how it may be a threat to human health. It then follows that anything which they, the policy makers believe could be a “threat” should be exterminated- just because they think it might be, just because they want it to be eradicated. We will set out here the common myths about Canada geese and aim to educate both misguided authorities and the public about goose behaviour. Our defence of this bird is as much an issue of human psychology as bird behaviour, and we set out this case to defend the bird, where many of the “problems” identified by Sandwell council officers are in fact problems of their very own making. Sandwell’s diagnosis of “problem” relies exclusively on fallible subjective judgments rather than objective biological tests. These are the hallmarks of the prejudiced, and they lie.
