The work that I’ve done/continue to do that is most relevant is to do with the communication of risk. I’ve written a case study on the visualisation of climate change for the Government Chief Scientific Advisor's report "Innovation: Managing Risk, Not Avoiding it" https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/innovation-managing-risk-not-avoiding-it , and I published an article on the visualisation of climate change risk in documentary for the Journal of Risk Research. I’m currently working on a new book on extreme sports documentaries, which has a lot to do with interaction with the natural environment, and there are conservation angles to it as well.
