September 2021
Australia may be one of the countries most likely to suffer at the hands of the climate crisis, but its leading politicians don’t seem to have realised that. In the September issue of Geographical, resident Matthew Brave asks why the federal government still keenly supports fossil fuels in the face of overwhelming evidence, and a population that is enthusiastically embracing solar power. Elsewhere in the issue: a visit to Burkina Faso to check up on the progress of the Great Green Wall – the ambitious project to green the Sahel region; and a detailed exploration of Uk farming in the wake of Brexit and a new trade deal with Australia. Will opening up the UK to meat from other continents spell the end of the British farm as we know it? Plus, a closer look at Portugal’s Coa Valley, where plans are underway to revive an important landscape, and a photography project in Xinjiang, China.
