Nature and Us

Literature Wales and Natural Resources Wales appointed two Poets in Residence – Durre Shahwar and Elan Grug Muse – to creatively respond to a national conversation about the future of Wales’ natural environment.

The aim was to develop a shared vision for the year 2050, by encouraging people to find out more about the way our actions impact on the natural environment and to think about how society’s relationship with nature needs to change.

You can read an example of the resulting poems below.
