Ensuring the sustainability of the world’s lagoons is vital for communities, ecosystems and economies. Lagoons support highly productive ecosystems and provide critical ecosystem services, societal benefits and myriad fundamental and valuable resources that are vital for the wellbeing and livelihoods of coastal communities. Yet, the sustainability of lagoons and the communities who rely on them are under increasing pressure from a complex set of interconnected issues, including climate change, sea-level rise, pollution, poor waste management, population growth and policy approaches that favour top-down governance to the exclusion of local knowledges and priorities (Convention on Wetlands, 2021). This article summarises the latest research on lagoons using the examples of Muni Lagoon in Ghana and Lagos Lagoon in Nigeria (Figure 1). It also draws from the interdisciplinary dialogues emerging through the Global Challenges Research Fund (GCRF)-funded Resilient Lagoon Network (see website), which seeks to challenge top-down management approaches and instead prioritise participatory approaches that value local knowledges and in which coastal communities are central to resilient lagoon governance.

ABSTRACT Footpath erosion is a problem in many countries where recreational areas are impacted by large numbers of visitors. In the UK, in National Parks and on long-distance footpaths, erosion is a frequent occurrence. Park authorities spend considerable amounts of money on the maintenance and repair of paths. An assessment and measurement of change has been attempted using several methods including remote sensing, experimental trampling on selected slopes and direct measurement. Challenges remain as to where and how often to measure. This article provides examples of simple measurement approaches carried out before and after major walking and running events on long-distance footpaths.

ABSTRACT The ‘globalhood’ is a conceptual label that has been used to describe parts of cities that are very popular with global tourists, often characterised by high levels of short-let/holiday rentals. In these neighbourhoods locals can feel overwhelmed by visitors. This article extends the concept of the globalhood to those areas of cities that play host to populations of thousands of students from around the world who are attracted to study at universities outside of their home country. Using the St Vincent’s Quarter, Sheffield, as a case study of the globalhood, this article explores the factors that led to its creation over the first two decades of the 20th century. In identifying the student globalhood, it posits that this type of neighbourhood should be considered when formulating an understanding of the urban morphology of cities in the UK and around the world where globally attractive higher education institutions attract large numbers of internationally diverse students.

ABSTRACT Students new to geomorphology need to observe and interpret complex landscapes and features being acted upon in space and over widely-varying time periods. These observational complexities are generally communicated via textbooks as much as fieldwork. This article presents an explanatory schema by linking materials (M), process-mechanisms (P) to the visual aspects and geometry (G) of the landscape. This MPG schema can be viewed within the ‘Critical Zone’ where the processes, linkages and feedbacks at the Earth’s surface are studied. The linkages extend beyond geomorphology to wider aspects of physical geography: geology, soils, biogeography, climate and environment.

Introduction Gerry Kearns (2020) introduced his article on decolonising space with details of the dumping of the statue of the 17th-century slave trader, Edward Colston, in Bristol Harbour in June 2020. Edward Colston was a member (and for a while Deputy Governor) of the Royal Africa Company (RAC). Between 1680 and 1686, the RAC had a monopoly, in England, on trading along the west coast of Africa in gold, silver, ivory and slaves. While slavery is often seen as ‘problem of the past’, and is a now crime under international law, so called modern slavery is ‘alive and well’ (Landman and Silverman, 2019, p. 277), and remains ‘a viable and profitable management practice for business’ (Banerjee, 2020, p. 415). Further, many large companies are currently potentially exposed to the risk of modern slavery in their businesses and supply chains. Although some research has been undertaken on the consumption of landscapes of past slavery activity (e.g. Yankholmes and McKercher, 2015), work on modern slavery has attracted limited attention from geographers (e.g. Lewis et al., 2015; Brickell et al., 2018; Brown et al., 2021). This article looks to make a small addition to such work, by exploring one of the ways in which the UK’s four leading food retailers have ‘addressed’ modern slavery, by reviewing their modern slavery statements.
Gerry Kearns(2020)介绍了他关于非殖民化空间的文章，详细介绍了2020年6月在布里斯托尔港倾倒17世纪奴隶贩子爱德华·科尔斯顿雕像的细节。爱德华·科尔斯顿(Edward Colston)是皇家非洲公司(RAC)的成员(并担任过一段时间的副总督)。1680年至1686年间，RAC在英国垄断了非洲西海岸的黄金、白银、象牙和奴隶贸易。虽然奴隶制通常被视为“过去的问题”，并且根据国际法现在是一种犯罪，但所谓的现代奴隶制“仍然存在并且很好”(Landman和Silverman, 2019，第277页)，并且仍然是“一种可行且有利可图的商业管理实践”(Banerjee, 2020，第415页)。此外，许多大公司目前在其业务和供应链中可能面临现代奴役的风险。尽管已经对过去奴隶制活动的景观消费进行了一些研究(例如Yankholmes和McKercher, 2015)，但关于现代奴隶制的工作吸引了地理学家的有限关注(例如Lewis等人，2015;Brickell等人，2018;Brown et al.， 2021)。这篇文章希望通过回顾他们的现代奴隶制声明，通过探索英国四大主要食品零售商“解决”现代奴隶制的方式之一，对这样的工作做一个小小的补充。

ABSTRACT Food packaging waste from Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) is a significant management concern. Waste minimisation is critical to reduce the pressures on already stretched municipal infrastructure. This is set against a backdrop of increasing student numbers at HEIs globally, resulting in substantial waste generation. Despite this, little is known about the quantities of packaging waste generated on HEI campuses worldwide. This article presents a local case study of the levels of on-site, take-away packaging waste destined for landfill from Stellenbosch University (SU), South Africa. Packaging waste from the Langenhoven Student Centre (known locally as the Neelsie), SU, was quantified and classified in terms of disposal options. The article reports that the vast majority of the 200,000+ beverage cups, 115,000 drinking straws and approximately 200,000 take-away food receptacles sold annually by vendors on campus are plastic packaging. The article explores how the limited disposal options for these items, due to the recyclability/compostability of packaging types and high degree of contamination, leads to this waste being sent to landfill.

ABSTRACT Digital technologies are involved in altered, and sometimes new, geographies of work in cities. This article uses the example of the office and platform food or grocery delivery in the UK to demonstrate how digital technologies enable flexible workspace arrangements. This flexibility is distinct from some previous geographies in which a fixed workplace was necessary for production. The article shows how such contemporary geography manifests through the seemingly-contradictory spatial tendencies that constitute the practices of digital work in which the location of the workplace is ambiguous: both anywhere and nowhere. While office work extends beyond a physical office building and, thus, can take place anywhere, platform delivery often involves no fixed workplace for workers in urban areas. Considering where the workplace is with digital technologies not only broadens the conventional sphere of labour politics, but also provides a different perspective on the role of work in contemporary capitalist economies.

ABSTRACT This article explores the impact that Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) 1–2.6 and 5–8.5 will have on near-surface temperature across Canada. This is achieved through the use of model ensembles, made up of CMIP5 data, to establish both the historic record of near-surface temperature across Canada, as well as how this is predicted to change in the future given the two SSP emission scenarios. The conclusions drawn from this modelling and analysis is valuable in the context of sustainable development and climate mitigation and adaptation discussions. Specifically, an understanding of the spatial extent of warming trends across Canada will allow for a more specific and tailored approach to be taken towards adaptation and ensure appropriate measures are taken in good time.
