Land use is a key determinant of environmental quality, and so anticipating land uses is central to planning for future environmental risks. This report explores the implications for land use of four scenarios for 2030 developed by Henley Centre Foresight Vision for the Environment Agency. These implications were the subject of a workshop held in February 2006. The aims of this study were to test the usefulness of the scenarios, understand major changes in land use and management that could result from them, allow experts and stakeholders to test and check the assumptions about the direction and magnitude of changes implied, and highlight priority issues and risks.
