Planning cemeteries: Their potential contribution to green infrastructure and ecosystem services (2021)
Journal Article
McClymont, K., & Sinnett, D. (2021). Planning cemeteries: Their potential contribution to green infrastructure and ecosystem services. Frontiers in Sustainable Cities, 3, Article 789925. https://doi.org/10.3389/frsc.2021.789925

Cemeteries are often included in typologies of green infrastructure features, but there has been little exploration of their role within a multifunctional network of green infrastructure. This paper uses national greenspace data to map the contributi... Read More about Planning cemeteries: Their potential contribution to green infrastructure and ecosystem services.

Levelling up - getting beyond the rhetoric (2021)
Journal Article
Hambleton, R. (2021). Levelling up - getting beyond the rhetoric. Town and Country Planning -London- Town and Country Planning Association-, 90(11/12), 373-378

This article examines the UK government's so-called 'levelling up' policy and outlines two scenarios for the future of this policy. The analysis suggests that levelling up can be characterised as a slogan in search of a policy. Despite announcing t... Read More about Levelling up - getting beyond the rhetoric.
