📄 New paper out!

It’s good that we’re taking sleep more seriously than we used to, but the messaging about its importance has gone too far

In the context of the Sycamore Gap tree sentencing today, I've written a short opinion piece for @lbc.co.uk on the role of landmarks in shaping place identity and connectedness. Find it here: www.lbc.co.uk/opinion/view... 🧠🌎
