This open access book brings together 16 specially commissioned
chapters drawn from a range of different professional-practitioner
and academic global perspectives on the importance of the
relationship between people and green and blue spaces. It focuses
on issues surrounding the importance of natural environments on
public health and wellbeing, and the environmental, cultural, and
social importance of green and blue spaces that can result through
responsible and sustainable adaptive management processes. It
explores how the Covid-19 pandemic forced reconsiderations of our
relationship with these natural spaces and highlights the important
impact of the pace of climate change. While not pretending to have
the answers, the stimulating and imaginative contributions embrace
rich perspectives drawn from backgrounds as diverse as heritage
studies, tourism, conservation, geography, policy formulation,
public health, environmental health, research methods, history,
literature, art, and theology.Â
