Connect with Climate Change: Sharing ideas, inspiring actions -

‘Raising ambition: A tale of two regions',

Scottish Power, together with the University of Glasgow and the University of Strathclyde, are hosting Connect with Climate Change Events, a virtual exchange series that is taking place throughout 2021 in the run-up to COP26.  

The Connect with Climate Change series aims to offer a platform to engage with academics, students, the public and businesses sharing ideas and views on a range of climate change topics. In advance of COP26 coming to Glasgow, these events will focus on “real-time” discussions around the different climate issues.

The organisations want to provide a forum where, through open dialogue, convention can be questioned and act as a catalyst for positive sustainable change.  

Gavin Slater - Head of Sustainability, Glasgow City Council, and Chief Responsible Officer for the Glasgow component of the RUGGEDISED project - is one of the speakers.
