Second visit to #mvv Devonport Energy from Waste Combined Heat and Power Facility in Plymouth with @ExeterGeography students for #GEO2135 thinking about the in/visible spaces of modern life and the people and infrastructures that make them work.
Lots of discussion about waste, the waste and resources industry - reduce/reuse/recycling, the relationship between infrastructures and behaviour and more and lots to keep thinking about. One student even called the visit 'a once in a lifetime opportunity'!
