Visualising Energy Supply Futures first workshop @cu-cardiffbusiness.bsky.social @merrynthomas.bsky.social
💡 Learning about hydro-electric energy Gilgit-Baltistan, northern Pakistan. Many issues of supply not meeting demand.

Another good two day session at the Crwsibl Cymru. Lots of interesting people and different ideas to consider about our careers in research. We worked hard and played hard also.

Energy supply is a huge issue, but it's hard to grasp what could actually happen in Wales and who could own it?

These free workshops use serious games and participatory mapping to visualise energy supply. The second workshop will link up with northern Pakistan.

Ngũgĩ wa Thiong'o died yesterday. His 1986 book Decolonising the Mind considered the deeper impact of suppressing languages, in this case African languages, and particularly the results of holding back written forms.

After @welshcrucible.bsky.social Lab 1, I feel a clearer need for geographical research with a keen eye for the social and economic. There is a mission to help to explore renewable energy generation, how it is transmitted, and the dimensions of storage and end use. We have huge potential in Wales.

Vote for Greening Maindee Gateway Garden in RHS People's Choice Award. The result of many years of community action and belief in nature and people. This garden will be rebuilt and planted on Wharf Rd in Newport. Winning the award will help other initiatives to follow.

Thanks Claire. Good to know that you did it before. It has been really good so far. I think it's about finding resources and sustaining belief.

Very pleased to be part of the Welsh Crucible group of 30 people. Some highly varied research interests. We have tried out some interesting techniques and learned a lot about how to present our interests and what we can offer. Tomorrow we shape things a bit more #crucible25 #crwsiblcymru
