By taking a proactive approach to heritage assessment to support nature recovery in land-use change projects for nature and climate, archaeology can be identified as an environmental discipline capable of contributing to environment benefits for more sustainable futures for everyone. This presentation will include examples of where the National Trust is addressing the balance of caring for our cultural and natural heritage, as well as identifying opportunities for nature recovery through archaeological and historic evidence.
