Healthy Country: re-writing the book on Australia

Michael-Shawn Fletcher

In this colloquium, Michael-Shawn Fletcher reflects on scientific objectivity and looks at our definition of ‘wilderness’. He uses the pollen record and other evidence to discuss human impacts on fire regimes and terrestrial ecosystems through time, including pre-and post-invasion land management and our relationship with country.
