This new issue of Leaves journal looks at the problems humans have created through monoculture and overgrazing, and the dramatic effect of standing back and allowing the natural world to rebalance.

The editor of Leaves is Sara Stevenson, the renowned Hill & Adamson scholar, and former Chief Curator of Photography at the National Galleries of Scotland. Leaves looks at issues of nature, health, wellbeing and creativity from different perspectives. Featuring work from contributors including writers, photographers, scientists, and curators, Leaves is both verbally and visually rich, containing thought-provoking articles, evocative poems, and stunning images of the natural world.
