It has become them and us’: the battle to burn England’s moorlands
To grouse farmers, it is a vital act of preservation; to environmentalists, it is arson. Will a ban on peat burning add fuel to the fire?
It's been dry for days. The breeze gently ruffling the tops of maroon-coloured heather and clumps of tall, pale grasses is neither too strong nor too weak. There is a pleasing squelch to the moss-covered peat below. These are the perfect conditions for burning.
Three gamekeepers from the Bingley Moor grouse estate in West Yorkshire begin their final burn of the afternoon – on land the government’s nature protection agency, Natural England, classes as blanket bog.
Burning older heather creates tasty young shoots for the grouse to eat and removes cover for predators such as foxes and stoats. The estates also claim it creates natural wildfire breaks and a habitat that benefits other birds. Yet the way grouse estates manage the nation’s uplands has now come under intense scrutiny, as scientists and, belatedly, ministers have realised the vital role the peat that covers much of the country's moors could play in sequestering carbon.
A gamekeeper uses a Weed Wand to blast the heather with intensive heat on Bingley Moor in West Yorkshire. To its critics Moorland Burning is damaging to the environment, it releases millions of tonnes of greenhouse gasses, destroys habitats and increases the threat of flooding in lowland rivers. Most controversially, the vast estates in Northern England and Scotland, which charge hunters up to £23,000 a day in the Autumn, burn patches of heather to remove cover for predators and create space for green shoots to be eaten by grouse. However the defenders of the practice argue it prevents wild fires by creating narural breaks and preserves a valued landscape that would otherwise revert to scrubland. They claim opposition is motivated by hostility to grouse shooting.

Hout Bay / Imizamo Yethu. Hout Bay is a picturesque valley about 15km south of Cape Town. Nestled between two affluent housing estates is the suburb of Imizamo Yethu, comprised of both a designated housing area and an ?informal settlement? area, which is largely comprised of small tin-roof shack dwellings which stretch up the steep slopes of the mountain behind it. The most striking thing is the number of trees in Tierboskloof (the richer estate), versus the almost treeless Imizamo Yethu
Unequal Scenes: Segregation of urban spaces in South Africa - 2016

A photographer has captured a stark view of the urban economic segregation in South Africa.
Johnny Miller has used drone technology to take an aerial view of the divide in standards of living between the poor and the wealthy.
His work highlights how the manicured suburbs of the middle classes sit only several hundred metres away from the ramshackle shanty towns of the poorest members of society.
An example include a God's-eye view of the picturesque suburbs looking out onto the glistening waters of Lake Michelle, 20km from Cape Town?s city centre. Separated by wetlands, a guard house and an electrified fence, the 38,000 inhabitants of the neighbouring tin shacks of Masiphumelele are a world away.
