Description | We have helped understand the variety of pressures (or 'drivers') which influence changes in land use across the UK. Specifically we show how changes in policy, market forces and the natural environment all influence change. We then show the variety of effects which different changes generate, including impacts upon food production, the water environment, greenhouse gases, biodiversity and recreation. Taking these findings together allows government decision makers to understand how changes in policy affect land use and the impacts of those policies. We measure these effects in both quantitative and economic value terms. |

Description | Either directly or indirectly, almost all human wellbeing and economic activity is dependent upon the natural environment and the 'ecosystem services' it provides. Yet many of these vital services lack are ignored when it comes to making decisions. The SEER grant has addressed this problem by developing theory and methods for incorporating natural capital and the ecosystem services it supplies within decision making and governance. This research has generated a variety of major impacts including: Academic impact: SEER has published a large volume of papers in some of the best international, peer reviewed journals in the world and bridged multiple disciplines ranging from economics to the natural sciences. Impact on Government policy: SEER played a major role in both leading and conducting the research for the UK National Ecosystem Assessment (UK-NEA) and in turn the Government's 2011 Natural Environment White Paper (NEWP). This in turn led to the creation of the UK Government's Natural Capital Committee (of which the SEER PI is a member) to advise the Chancellor of the Exchequer and the UK Economic Affairs Committee on the incorporation of natural capital in government decision making. This has been supplemented through numerous direct briefings to Ministers and presentations to Parliamentary Committees. Impact through projects undertaken for the business sector: SEER work with the private sector has been most notable in the water sector. This includes the development of new mechanisms to allow private sector firms to cooperate in ways which are both good for profits and generate major improvements to the natural environment. Impact through networking: SEER has been a major contributor to the NERC Valuing Nature Network (led by the SEER PI) and currently leads the economic element of the ESRC Nexus Network. This brings together researchers with government, the business sector and other players in the economy-environment area, an impact which has been enhanced through a very large number of TV, radio and newspaper interviews. |

Results and Impact | The session involved a practical demonstration of the latest geographical mapping techniques using mobile phones, plus a demo of the latest in visualisation of the data. The afternoon started with a walk across the campus to the river Yare. Six people came along for the stroll and to get a hands-on session on how to use mobile phones to capture data on river quality and the surrounding environment. Using an app created by Sarah, people entered any environmental issues, such as litter, pollution, bank erosion and invasive species that they saw. The user can then take a photo and record the posistion using the phone's GPS. This data is then sent to a central computer and is put on the digital map. Public impressed by the use of technology and the implications it could have for landscape management |

Results and Impact | Feedback by members of the general public on tools (virtual tours) in development. This led to iterative improvement of the tools over time and before their official wider release. 60 pupils (two classes of Key Stage 2 children (8-11 year olds)) attended a 1-1.5 hr session with Google Earth. Students were engaged with problem solving activities and answered a two-page quiz. Improved public understanding of the local landscape and ecosystem services (albeit not explicit). As there were only a limited number of child participants (n ˜ 60) and responses (n = 21), formal quantitative analysis of activities with schoolchildren is not especially meaningful. However, children delivered feedback that they had leant 'lots' or 'quite a bit' about the study area and expressed a wish to spend more time on the exercise. These learning outcomes were echoed in the comments provided by the teachers. This engagement activity has formed part of an academic research article (in review). |

Results and Impact | Session D4 at the World Forum on Natural Capital. Session: International trade and natural capital accounting beyond borders. Chaired by: Professor Alison Hester, Head of Safeguarding Natural Capital, James Hutton Institute. Participants: Dr Pushpam Kumar, Chief, Ecosystem Services Economics Unit, Division of Environment Programme Implementation, UNEP; Professor John Barrett, Professor of Sustainability Research, University of Leeds; Daan Wensing, Managing Director, Leaders for Nature, IUCN NL, Mathis Wackernagel, President, Global Footprint Network, and Barry Gardiner MP, Shadow Minister for the Natural Environment & Fisheries to reflect on how international trade affects the metrics and interpretation of Natural Capital Accounts. Chaired by NCI's Prof. Alison Hester, Natural Capital Theme Lead at the James Hutton Institute, the conversation turned around what governments' 'international footprint' and international trade meant for natural capital accounting and sustainable consumption measures. Prof. Barrett argued that we cannot leave the solution to corporations alone, as they do not and cannot think about the whole. It is governments that can and need to implement regulation and take system-level responsibility. Trade of course makes this highly complex. The conversation turned around what governments' 'international footprint' and international trade meant for natural capital accounting and sustainable consumption measures |

Results and Impact | On 6 November 2014, Amii Harwood, Ruth Welters, Anthony De Gol and Greg Smith from CSERGE met with around 50 members of the public over the course of the day in the Forum in central Norwich. The aim of the event was to talk about people's favourite natural spaces and the value they put on them and of course to engage people with the work carried out in CSERGE on valuing nature. We invited people to put a green arrow on the local OS map to show places they valued and we had many interesting discussions with people about the walks they have done and the wildlife they have seen. We also had red arrows for areas of concern, such as footpath closures, housing development and offshore windfarms. What soon became clear is how far people come from to visit Norwich for the day - we could have done with a few more maps! People picked up a range of leaflets from the stand, including a flier about valuing nature, ESRC material on social science and ESRC magazine Britain In 2014. |

Results and Impact | Professor Ian Bateman gave a talk on 'Values and the environment: Bringing the natural world into economic decision making' at a public meeting last week in Central Norwich, on Thursday 6 November. Around 60 people from the general public, local councils, green groups, Natural England, local Green Party councillors and many more came to the early evening event at the Forum. Ian's talk sparked some lively debate as some people were still unsure about the monetary approach to values. However, many of the organisations invited spoke of how this approach could be useful in the work they are doing with local communities. |
