It was a pleasure for us at the @JamesHuttonInst to host @jrockstrom together with the @MacaulayDvTrust and to listen to this global pioneer in climate change thinking. Important messages around the need for effective engagement and communication and the need to embed change.

Investment in our work is an investment for every person in the UK in continuing to secure our food chains of crops upon which whole industries depend. A great visit from @Douglas4Moray to show how #Hutton science is working towards future proofing against climate change.

Great to catch up and discuss ideas, particularly meaningful given that James Hutton was a founder of the @RoyalSocEd. His innovative thinking and challenging of ideas changed how the world is viewed and serves as the inspiration for our approach to our work today

Sad to hear of the passing of James Lovelock, creator of Gaia theory of ‘living’ Earth. What a contribution he made, particularly relevant given that his ideas were built on those of James Hutton’s theory of the Earth. Clear thinkers can be so rare and far apart in history.
