Been struggling a bit just recently with all the negative things that are happening in the world & the lack of urgency & action being taken to deal with the #Climate Crisis.
So it was good to be reminded by Mum and Dad this week about the positive impacts we can have locally 1/3
Happy to report that I have been accepted to study for an Environmental Sciences degree at UHI Inverness starting in September !
A few photos from a recent trip on the Loch Seaforth ferry to Stornoway.
In total we saw 330 Common Dolphins, 9 Minke whales and 34 Harbour porpoise
A nice positive, affirming evening at Scottish Southern Energy HQ in Perth for the Powering Futures award ceremony.
This new education initiative recognises attainment as opposed to achievement (passing exams).

Very proud to be one of the first recipients of the Ken Muir award.
The sign almost bigger than me when I started climate striking on 14 December 2018 !
UHI Inverness initially, if I get the right grades
It's not been easy keeping motivated for such a long time. Hopefully the youth movement have succeeded in raising & maintaining awareness about the #ClimateCrisis
I will continue to campaign on this issue going forward with the hope world leaders will eventually listen & take the necessary action
Climate strike week 337

After 6 and a half years this is my last official Friday #schoolstrike4climate as I have now finished school and will hopefully be going to College to study Environmental Science in September.
A few pictures from yesterdays Surfers Against Sewage national paddle out campaign in Nairn, highlighting the need for all agencies to get a grip on the sewage pollution routinely being dumped in our waterways & seas, threatening our health and the lives of the marine life we all love.
Nice to come across this sloooòw worm on this mornings dog walk.

A wee video of an interview I did last year with @scotcoastclean.bsky.social for their Shaping Our Shores project whilst helping to clean up beaches around the Wester Ross MPA

Took part in the latest @nwhbeachcleans.bsky.social group beach clean of Raffin in Assynt as part of the @keepscotbeautiful.bsky.social #SpringCleanScotland campaign.

30+ volunteers removed 1118kg of rubbish from a 1km stretch of beach over 3 days.
The largest single item weighed 106kg !
