Research
My research now covers nature across the ancient world, and environmental pollution within Roman cities. Pollution is not a new problem, and Romans dealt with it in much the same way, introducing zoning in their cities, building flexible spaces, and planting trees to absorb emissions as well as reduce noise. These are new and exciting areas in Classics, and I join my research up with science as much as possible, a habit developed from the early days of my tree projects, where I was consistently asked details about the trees I had only seen on the page at that time.
