A Poetic Inquiry to Design Green Transition in Northwest Highland

This AHRC-funded project is a partnership with coastal communities, exploring people's thinking and feeling about climate change.  We are using creative research methods, mostly poetry, to open up discussion about three key opportunities for carbon sequestration in the northwest: restoring peatlands, alternatives to marine diesel and seaweed cultivation.

Researchers: Dr Mandy Haggith
