About Me
|
Hi! My name is Aila :) I'm an outdoor writer, public speaker and activist. I care deeply about the landscapes that have shaped me. My writing is a deep appreciation for the earth and a call for action in equal parts. I have worked with public figures such as Paul McCartney and Benedict Cumberbatch to draw attention to the climate catastrophe, and appeared in a variety of media including BBC Newsnight, CNN and Vogue.
My interests are varied, and include: climate activism, conservation, rewilding, hiking, caving, and landscape history. I write about all of the above topics and more, often blending them together to provide unique insights into the way we perceive and interact with the natural world around us. I believe that the power of the planet is conjoined with the power of the people. Through both writing and public speaking, I use my voice to draw attention to the topics that matter most to me. In a world on the brink of total collapse, every person matters. Every word matters. |
