Good bye folks! Like many like-minded organisations we've stopped actively using X. We're transitioning over to using Bluesky - see you there? @howdec.bsky.social

Last month, students from across the Highlands and Moray met in Inverness for #MockCOP29, a mock conference empowering young people to tackle climate issues.
With partners @HOWDEC and @DYWICH, we share our thoughts on its importance.

Today's #Art4Action for #COP29 is by pupils at Speyside High. At this week's #MockCOP they helped young people make Inukshuk figures from stones from their local area. We need to HEAR from indigenous voices, LEARN from them & SUPPORT those who've contributed least to the crisis.
