'Where Wind and Water Cleave: An Environmental History of Scotland'
Journey through Scotland's remarkable environmental history in this illustrated talk presented by Emeritus Professor Richard D. Oram.
Celebrating his new book 'Where wind and water cleave', Oram will tell the story of Scotland's past eras of profound climate change, from the climatic highs of the Late Iron Age to the 'little ice age' and beyond.
Learn about the conflict between economic growth and environmental protection in the context of both mounting public awareness and unfolding environmental disaster.
Together we will explore our climate past and future.
