An Environmental Historian in the Church of England
As an environmental historian at the University of Bristol and a candidate for self-supporting ministry in the Church of England, my work encompasses religion, environment, and history. Most of my academic research focuses on the environmental history of the Polar Regions, and I am a co-PI on the McMurdo Dry Valleys Long Term Ecological Research project in Antarctica. My main religious affiliation is with St Stephen’s Church in Bristol city centre, where I help to run the Resonate community; I am also an associate member of the Iona Community in Scotland. I am especially interested in the practical ways that environmental history and environmental theology can be used promote social justice and sustainability in contexts ranging from human impacts in Antarctica to urban agriculture in Bristol. This blog will be a place where I can explore and share these ideas. All of the opinions expressed are my own and do not necessarily represent any of the institutions I am affiliated with.
