		<title>The Rain in Carballo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a little slow to start going through my photos from this Summer&#8217;s two-month trip around the Iberian peninsula. I stayed for about two weeks in the town of Carballo, which is 35km from A Coruña, 45km from Santiago de Compostela and 10km from the nearest beach. It&#8217;s a small, quiet town full of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Travel in Iberia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I spent much of this summer travelling overland around the Iberian Peninsula &#8211; the parts of the world commonly known as Spain and Portugal. I was teaching and looking after kids at a summer camp in the Basque Country for two weeks, and then I had about a week and a half travelling in a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Photo Point</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I crouch below the eyeline of the crowd Half-watching Water dance, half in-camera. The drumming and the wash-rags beating loud I strive to trap in electronic amber. With flashes or by squatting frozen-still I take away the movement of the night. This festival of Nowness on the hill Distilled in slices, slides for future sight. The energy of life in human form Is tumbling [...]]]></description>

		<title>Climate Camp</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Climate Camp (or the Camp for Climate Action, in full) is a reaction to the failures of our governments to take anything like the steps that science tells us will be necessary to avert catastrophic climate change, and to the failures of our democratic system to represent dissenting voices. When even majority opinions are readily [...]]]></description>

		<title>Chocolate and Chestnut Risotto</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes I get seized by a vision of something I think I could cook, that I&#8217;ve never heard of anybody else cooking but which feels to me like it could be really, really good. Every now and then it turns out that I&#8217;m wrong, and my crazy ideas don&#8217;t add up to something delicious after [...]]]></description>

		<title>Climate change animation &#8211; it&#8217;s much, much later than you think</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wake Up, Freak Out &#8211; then Get a Grip from Leo Murray on Vimeo. My brother, Leo Murray, is an animator as well as an activist. He made this film for his animation master&#8217;s degree at the Royal College of Arts, and I was very impressed indeed with the job he did of communicating the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Ice and Frost</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think most people don&#8217;t pay nearly enough attention to what they&#8217;re walking on, especially in cold weather. The richness of the patterns that ice forms is staggering, and provides an intriguing glimpse into the physical processes going on both at a molecular level and on a much larger scale. Some of the most fun [...]]]></description>

		<title>Treebike</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One day, many years ago now, I was taking my dog for a walk on Hampstead Heath when I met two men who had just hauled a bicycle up into this tree. I think that&#8217;s as far as their plan went &#8211; they didn&#8217;t have a camera to record the moment for posterity, or anything [...]]]></description>

		<title>Gyokuro</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I finally got to try Gyokuro green tea at a beautiful little salon de thé called The Tea Caddy, in the Latin Quarter of Paris. It is never a cheap tea, but they had it for around half the price I&#8217;ve seen elsewhere. The leaves and the infusion are remarkably green, quite vividly so, and [...]]]></description>

		<title>North Calcutta</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We get up early in the morning to meet Sunayana and Kenji from Calcutta Walks, at Shovabazar1 Metro station2 in North Calcutta3. They are to show us around some of the old houses and narrow streets of this part of the city. It&#8217;s uncomfortably early for me, but it&#8217;s worth it to be able to [...]]]></description>
