Butterflies and the Law
An interesting morning. Had a chat with Clive Farrell, the man behind the ambitious £25 million Butterfly World project here in the UK about the economic and environmental impact it is set to make upon the local area. The centre piece of the project is an enormous biome, a vast greenhouse, set to include the third largest collection of tropical plants in the UK but also to boast a staggering variety of butterflies from across the world.
The dome will also house the lepidopteron’s avian equivalents, hummingbirds. That’s a lot of iridescent sheen per square metre.

Must watch my typos. That almost read “collection of tropical pants” and whilst such a display might well be worth seeing I am sure it wouldn’t sit well with the butterflies. Last year we added a news release to Blooloop, in which a park proudly spoke of revealing its "new director of pubic relations”.
Chad Emerson, an Associate Professor of Law at Faulkner University’s Jones School of Law, frequent lecturer, author, and consultant in the area of amusement and hospitality law is to become an author on Bemusmeent.
He is the former editor and administrator of the amusement industry’s leading legal and regulatory website - ThemeLaw - and will provide a weekly update on developments in this vital and constantly evolving field, joining and enhancing Bemsuement's impressive group of key industry experts and executives.
