Healthy Ecosystems East Anglia a Landscape Enterprise Networks Opportunity Analysis 1 Healthy Ecosystems East Anglia A Landscape Enterprise Networks opportunity analysis Making Landscapes work for Business and Society Message LENs: Making landscapes 1 work for business and society This document sets out a new way in which businesses can work together to influence the assets in their local landscape that matter to their bottom line. It’s called the Landscape Enterprise Networks or ‘LENs’ Approach, and has been developed in partnership by BITC, Nestlé and 3Keel. Underpinning the LENs approach is a systematic understanding of businesses’ landscape dependencies.

  • Budget Submission – the East of England: an Engine for Growth
    Dear Rt Hon Rishi Sunak MP MP, Chancellor of the Exchequer Budget Submission – the East of England: An Engine for Growth We are writing to you as Co-chairs of the East of England APPG officers to request that you consider, when preparing your March Budget statement, the submission the APPG agreed in advance of the anticipated (and ultimately delayed) Spending Review - An Engine for the Nation’s Prosperity. We also trust you will have in mind Cambridge Econometrics’ report – An Economic Strategy for the East of England – about which the APPG was briefed when it held its inaugural meeting last week. Like the UK Innovation Corridor APPG’s report - Local Industrial Strategy Growth Prospectus – these documents are complementary, and we endorse their findings. In fact, the very well attended APPG meeting - including ten Parliamentarians, representatives of LEPs and local government as well as business and university leaders - demonstrated the high degree of consensus across the East of England regarding what all agree are the opportunities, challenges and priorities for Government support for this region’s cities, market and coastal towns, and villages and, of course, to support its private, public and third sectors. We would therefore wish to emphasise our emerging collective vision for the East of England, which is: • as a network of dynamic high growth corridors, linking key regional clusters and institutions, connecting Cambridge with significant coastal assets and global gateways to the east and CaMkOx to the west as well as via the innovation

  • Dynamics of Religious Ritual: Migration and Adaptation in Early Medieval Britain
    Dynamics of Religious Ritual: Migration and Adaptation in Early Medieval Britain A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Brooke Elizabeth Creager IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Peter S. Wells August 2019 Brooke Elizabeth Creager 2019 © For my Mom, I could never have done this without you. And for my Grandfather, thank you for showing me the world and never letting me doubt I can do anything. Thank you. i Abstract: How do migrations impact religious practice? In early Anglo-Saxon England, the practice of post-Roman Christianity adapted after the Anglo-Saxon migration. The contemporary texts all agree that Christianity continued to be practiced into the fifth and sixth centuries but the archaeological record reflects a predominantly Anglo-Saxon culture. My research compiles the evidence for post-Roman Christian practice on the east coast of England from cemeteries and Roman churches to determine the extent of religious change after the migration. Using the case study of post-Roman religion, the themes religion, migration, and the role of the individual are used to determine how a minority religion is practiced during periods of change within a new culturally dominant society. ii Table of Contents Abstract …………………………………………………………………………………...ii List of Figures ……………………………………………………………………………iv Preface …………………………………………………………………………………….1 I.

  • Explorationsprojekt Sterup Planung
    Zusammenfassung Februar 2014 Explorationsprojekt Sterup Informationsschreiben Abbildung 1: Lage des Lizenzgebietes Sterup. Quelle: LBEG Jahresbericht 2012 Stand: Februar 2014 Zuteilung der Erlaubnislizenz ist im Dezember 2013 erfolgt und gilt bis 30.11.2016. Arbeitsprogramm 2014 besteht aus geologischen Studien und mikrobieller Probennahme. Weitere geplante operative Arbeiten 2015 und 2016 sind durch Betriebsplanverfahren und Anhörungen vorab zu genehmigen. CA schafft Öffentlichkeit und Transparenz für alle Aktivitäten. Es wird regelmäßig an den geplanten Informationsbeirat berichtet werden. Allgemeines Die Central Anglia AS, Oslo, plant ab 2014 im Kreis Schleswig-Flensburg, Schleswig-Holstein, auf konventionelle Weise nach Öl und Gas zu suchen. Bisher waren die Gründer der Central Anglia für Großunternehmen schwerpunktmäßig im skandinavischen und deutschen Explorationsgeschäft tätig. Die über viele Jahre gewonnene Expertise ist die Grundlage für ein Engagement auch in Deutschland. Die vermutete Lagerstätte in der Lizenz Sterup liegt in Sandsteinschichten aus der Jura-und Triaszeit in 1.100-1.400 m Tiefe. Die Reservoireigenschaften sind aus Nachbarbohrungen bekannt und sind so gut, dass im Erfolgsfall rein konventionell gefördert werden kann und keinerlei Bezug zu der umstrittenen „Fracking-Technologie“ bestehen wird. Fracking ist kein Thema oder Geschäftsfeld für Cental Anglia. Sterup: Lage des Lizenzgebietes mit seismischen Linien, Lage des Salzstockes und geologischer Querschnitt durch die Lizenz Die bisher nur vermutete Lagerstätte ist nach Abschluss der laufenden geologischen Studien im Jahre 2015 durch seismische Vermessungen zu bestätigen. Das Einmessen von Seismiklinien stellt eine Verdichtung bereits vorhandener Linien dar, die in der 1 Explorationsprojekt Sterup - Informationsschreiben Vergangenheit gemessen wurden, wird aber nicht wie früher mit Sprengseismik sondern mit Vibratortechnik vermessen und dient der genaueren Definition der Gesteinslagerung im Untergrund.

    Finding common ground Integrating local and national interests on commons: guidance for assessing the community value of common land Downley Common in the Buckinghamshire Chilterns. 25a Bell Street, Henley-on-Thames, Oxon RG9 2BA tel: 01491 573535 fax 01491 573051 e-mail: [email protected] website: www.oss.org.uk (registered in England and Wales, limited company number 7846516, registered charity number 144840) March 2010 with minor revisions January 2013 About this report This work was commissioned by Natural England and funded through its Ma- jor Project on Common Land. The objective of the work, as given in the work specification, is to identify mechanisms to recognise and take account of local community interests on commons, hence complementing established criteria used in assessing national importance of land for interests such as nature con- servation and landscape. The intention is not that community interests should be graded or weighed and balanced against national interests, but rather that they should be given proper recognition and attention when considering man- agement on a common, seeking to integrate local and national aspirations within management frameworks. Specifically, the purpose of the commission was to provide information to enable the user or practitioner to: i be aware of issues relating to the community interests of common land, ii assess the importance of common land to local neighbourhoods, iii engage with communities and understand their perspectives, iv incorporate community concerns in any scheme examining the future and management of commons. The advice and views presented in this report are entirely those of the Open Spaces Society and its officers.
