Our Upland Commons Sub-Projects
These are grouped by four themes:
D1: Carbon
Carbon (on three commons) will develop a Hill Farm Carbon Footprint Calculator to appraise how commoning and hill farming emits and sequesters carbon.
D2: Historic Environment
Heritage (on eight commons) will investigate, repair and promote the care of a variety of historic structures.
D5: Biodiversity
Biodiversity (on ten commons) will involve specialists, local citizen scientists, and commoners in survey and monitoring work to identify and implement the management needs of endangered birds, butterflies and moths.
