Dave Green
MOTH EXPERT, SAFARI GUIDE & KNEPP WILDLAND FOUNDATION TRUSTEE
Dave, a founding trustee of the Knepp Wildland Foundation, has a background in accountancy and previous trustee experience with the Sussex Wildlife Trust, alongside his current role with the Western Sussex Rivers Trust. He is the Technical Director and COO of Heat Mat Ltd. and, as of April 2024, a freelance ecologist and surveyor with Lughurst Ecology, drawing on over 25 years of ornithological survey experience.
‘I believe that the Knepp rewilding project provides a fantastic template for how to achieve biodiversity gain on low-grade agricultural land, and it shows how to create a more porous landscape to enable species to respond to climate change. Listening to the dawn chorus in the Knepp scrubland is one of the most magical experiences you can have in Sussex and takes me back to the birdsong of my childhood. Everybody should have a little bit of Knepp in their life.’
