My friend and colleague Stephan Harding, who has died aged 71, was a scientist, ecologist and teacher. At the heart of his work lay his deep feeling for the Earth and his belief in the planet as a living intelligence.
As teacher and resident ecologist, he was one of the five founding faculty at Schumacher College, a progressive institution for ecological studies created in 1991 as part of Dartington Hall Trust in Totnes, Devon.
