1. #IconTC #IconESN Hi, I'm a Paper Conservator for Historic Environment Scotland. I’ll be tweeting on the REDUCE, REUSE and RECYCLE initiatives introduced by the Archive Conservation team at HES @TizzyHepher @EmmaBuchholz3 @HistEnvScot.

2. #IconTC #IconESN This HES hierarchy reminds us to purchase sustainably - can you can borrow, share, hire or lease instead of buying new? Landfill should be the last resort after all reuse and recycling options have been investigated.

T is for Twitter Conference @icon_esn are having their 3rd biannual twitter conference on 29th March starting at 10.00BST. Follow using the #IconTC or #IconESN. @conserve_lfcp @BainbridgeCons @ev_evans @cglartschool @conservators @LynnTeggart @BL_CollCare #ConservationAtoZ

#IconTC #IconESN Ongoing short-term actions include: recycling nitrile gloves & plastic packaging; investigating studio leather dyes, their use & disposal; workshopping card cradles for displaying books to replace our current bespoke acrylic ones. 5/12

#IconTC #IconESN The above makes clear that sustainable GLAM practice is bookended by cons. & that cons shouldn’t be at the expense of our communities & environment by limiting accessibility to collections or thru excessive use of polluting materials/CO2e-hungry practices. 8/12

4 #IconTC #IconESN I personally believe that every cultural heritage organisation has a role to play in tackling climate change and a duty to act, but to make an impact we must build new relationships and partnerships. This is the time for professionals to unite their efforts.

#IconTC #IconESN Welcome to this presentation. ‘WEATHERING THE STORM: Protecting museums and their collections from a changing climate’ as part of the @iconesn Twitter Conference

2.#IconTC #IconESN Sustainability is not solely caring for the planet. It’s a systems mindset for future-oriented and collaborative activity. This is why we can’t separate environmental from social and economic sustainability, and why they must be explored concurrently.

#IconTC #IconESN Don’t be daunted by the scale of the challenge. Don’t think your efforts are meaningless. If everybody changes what they can change, the world changes.

@UkNatArchives @icon_esn @V_and_A @ClimateHeritage @ICCROM #IconTC #IconESN #ClimateHeritage and its mission for #COP26 has inspired us to think big and take part. Come join us at our cross disciplinary online event Sustainability in Archives 8 and 10 Nov 2021 Eventbrite link coming soon!

@UkNatArchives @icon_esn #IconTC #IconESN When creating the action plan there was limited literature specific to archives, but many ideas and activities outlined in literature from other specialisms were translatable.

3 #IconTC #IconESN Changing the world is not something you do on your own. The “Let's talk climate action” panel was a motley crew – scientist, comedian, geologist and an architect (me!) but we were united by a common cause and a shared desire to communicate more effectively.

#IconTC #IconESN Repair and re-use, rather than replacement, is central to Icon’s work and values. Who better than Icon members to advocate for this! Communication and persuasion must lie at the heart of the work conservators do.

#IconTC #IconESN Icon’s commitment is deeply held. It was the reason that the Board of Trustees established the ESN in the first place. We’re delighted at the level of energy that has gone into this to date but realise that there is much more to be done.
