Would we be better at cutting emissions if we could see them?

A mock-up of 1 tonne of CO₂e made visible next to everyday activities.

Next to it, the infamous #PeaSouper that killed 12,000 Londoners 1952, from #BBC newsreels. This led to the #CleanAirAct1956.

Tiny bat appreciation day. Look at those little puffballs! 😍

AKA Caribbean white tent-making bat. They construct "tents" from plant leaves by cutting the ribs with its teeth and roosting underneath. It is a specialist #frugivore, consuming almost exclusively the fruits of one species of fig.

Bat 4: Honduran white bats (Ectophylla alba). Gotta love the tiny tent-making cotton balls.

Two bats hanging in the middle of a big leaf tent. They are small, round, and white-furred, with yellow pointy ears, yellow leaf-shaped noses, and little black eyes.

#Sustainability comes in many forms. Across many landscapes. And affects everyone differently.

We applaud the #ScottishGovernment for taking another great step forward in protecting our planet and our homes.
