“…For example, in our BSG‐sponsored colour booklet to promote geomorphology to a wider public (Tooth and Viles, 2014), we tended to emphasize remote, near‐pristine landscapes rather than the urban, more heavily modified, landscapes that may be more familiar to some underrepresented communities. We did mention human landscape modification in a putative Anthropocene, a theme that we and other geomorphologists have explored more widely (Brown et al ., 2013, 2017; Dixon et al ., 2018) but are we really communicating effectively to marginalized, underrepresented communities who may have more experience with channelized rivers and engineered slopes than with more natural landforms? Returning to the critical physical geography theme, should we be paying more attention to the ‘crappy landscapes’ (Urban, 2018), where landscapes meet people and the full complexities of human–environment interactions are played out? - Perceptions, anxieties and experiences .
