这一观点考虑了媒体对去年冬天洪水的报道对农业社区的影响,以及他们作为解决洪水所必需的景观变化的关键合作伙伴的作用。这篇论文的重点是威尔士中部pontbrenn农民的经历,他们的土地是一项关于植树应对洪水风险的好处的研究的所在地。有人认为,媒体的哗众取宠,以及在许多情况下围绕这个问题的科学混淆,已经破坏了农民的善意和参与。因此,这一观点强调了强调协同效应作为对话起点的重要性;就像在讨论各种形式的景观多功能时一样。
This viewpoint considers the impacts of media coverage of last winter’s flooding upon the farming community and the implications for their role as key partners in the delivery of landscape changes necessary to address flooding. The paper focuses on the experiences of the Pontbren farmers in Mid Wales, whose land is the site of a much-referenced study on the benefits of tree planting to address flood risk. It is argued that media sensationalism, and in many instances conflation of the science around this issue, has served to undermine good-will and engagement from farmers. Consequently, this viewpoint emphasises the importance of highlighting synergies as starting points for dialogue; as is the case when negotiating all forms of landscape multifunctionality.
