As we approach the first anniversary of COP26, which was held in Glasgow last year, and the start of COP27 in Egypt come and join Glasgow Eco Trust and Scottish Communities Climate Action Network (SCCAN) for a community climate conversation to create the social and political will to address the climate emergency.

Most Scots are concerned about climate change, but are uncertain / overwhelmed and unsure how to respond. Social research shows that through conversations with people we trust we make sense of confusing information and decide what to do about it.

Our vision is a country in which climate action is a top priority. Community, businesses and government unite to make the courageous and urgent changes needed to return a safe climate.

Climate Conversations are facilitated discussions which aim to bring about effective action on climate change through the power of common people in Scotland.

Having lots of quality conversations about climate change is one of the most effective things we can do to stop it. 

“I’ve been truly surprised by the impact of my Conversation amongst friends who were previously silent on this issue. We are still talking about it nine months on!” – Jarrod, host
