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.

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

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.

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 !

Amazon rainforest cut down to build highway for COP climate summit The infrastructure required to host climate talks in BelΓ©m is undermining the cause, campaigners say.

You couldn't make it up and sadly you don't have to, destroying the Amazon rain forest in order to build a road for the next pointless COP climate summit in Belem
