Stories of Soil Symposium, Scotland’s Climate Week 24

12.09.2024 | stephanie
The Forth Valley Climate Action Hub team is hosting an exciting series of events during Climate Week, focusing on nature-based solutions to address climate change. These events are aimed at raising awareness and inspiring action across society to help achieve the goal of net zero emissions. The theme emphasises how working with the natural world can help us adapt to environmental changes.

The events will offer a blend of community learning, storytelling, and practical activities centered around our connections with nature, particularly through the lens of soil health and its vital role in resilience, diversity, and nature restoration. Attendees will have the opportunity to explore how we interact culturally, emotionally, and physically with soils and the life forms that depend on them.

Stories of Soil Symposium, Wednesday 25th September, Sauchie Home Farm. 12pm-4pm

Key Highlights:

  • Sauchie Home Farm provides a beautiful setting for connecting with nature.
