Climate Conversations

Last September we invited residents in Bathgate to determine their local climate priorities. With community transport the top area for action (voted by 81% of attendees), followed by climate education focusing on green space (71%), then by community energy (53%), there is plenty to work on.

The next steps for these priorities will be discussed during Climate Conversations. A series of these events will travel around West Lothian localities. These mini-gatherings are your chance to get involved in local action to improve your area’s resources and help the planet. It could be flooding and pollution, cleaning up green spaces, helping nature and biodiversity, access to more local fresh food, sustainable transport, community owned energy and cheaper, greener power sources. What matters in your area?

Linlithgow will host the first Climate Conversation. See event details for the evening, on 26 May. The following week we’ll return to Bathgate to take the next steps there.
