Society, governments and investors are beginning to appreciate the true value and complexity of the landscape. This is shown by recognizing it as being much more than a matter of ecology or nature, a few trees, acres of woodland or grassland - as not only the physical context, the constructed public realm, national parks, coastlines, squares and promenades - but also as being reflective of our memories and values, the sense of pride we share in the places where we work and live. The experiences we have of a place, as citizens, employers, visitors, students and tourists.
