It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. Don’t worry about sounding professional. Sound like you. There are over 1.5 billion websites out there, but your story is what’s going to separate this one from theds back and don’t hear your own voice in your head, that’s a good sign you still have more work to do.

  • This study argues that recognising and embedding relational values of soil—values that emphasise human-soil connections beyond mere economic or ecological metrics— offers an alternative to the exclusionary models of fortress conservation. Unlike fortress conservation, which often focuses solely on intrinsic or instrumental values, relational values encompass a wider range of human experiences, including cultural and spiritual connections to nature (Díaz et al., 2015). This broader recognition can lead to more inclusive conservation policies that resonate with diverse populations (Klain et al., 2017).
