Looking After Our Limited Land with Rachel Fisher, DEFRA

Environment Deep Dive

How can we reconcile the competing demands for land across government? How is it possible to account for all the different environmental, social, cultural, geographical and geological factors that determine land use?

Bryony Loveless, DESNZ, talks to Rachel Fisher, Deputy Director of Land Use Policy at DEFRA, about her work and background, from the many things we need our land for and what implications this has for policy and human activity. Hear Rachel talk about the need to understand the spatial implications of policy, because ultimately there is only a limited amount of land.
