I also had the pleasure of catching up with Toni Freitas @TFClimate about the Circular Economy Bill & stronger action we need to take to increase sustainability. The Edinburgh Futures Institute will be a great asset to linking the Circular Economy Masters to teaching & research

Women and girls are uniquely vulnerable to the impacts of climate change. Yet, they are also at the forefront of global #ClimateAction. This #InternationalWomensDay join the fight for gender equality! Together we can create a sustainable tomorrow. #IWD2022

The fires across the West Coast are just the latest examples of the very real ways our changing climate is changing our communities. Protecting our planet is on the ballot. Vote like your life depends on it—because it does.
