Scotland’s Climate Week
23 - 29 September 2024
Every year since 2016, communities and organisations from all across Scotland have come together for Scotland's Climate Week. This year, it’s a chance to celebrate and encourage climate action, and to learn more about tackling climate change by sharing ‘Stories for Change’. Share your story using #ScotClimateWeek to help spark new ideas and inspire others to act.
Stories for change
Everyone knows that taking climate action is good for the planet, but by sharing your own ‘stories for change’ we can highlight how these actions are good for us too. Maybe you’ve been driving less, and realised you love clearing your head on the walk to work. Or maybe your business is mapping out its sustainability journey, and you’ve found a few cost-saving tricks along the way.
By sharing your story using #ScotClimateWeek you can be part of a powerful movement towards a healthier, happier Scotland.
For inspiration and to stay up to date on Scotland’s climate week follow us on Facebook, X, Instagram and LinkedIn.
