Revealing research done by The Ferret which raises questions about what Scotland's land is being used for and who benefits. The new Land Reform Bill needs to include a Public Interest Test so the public can decide if firms like this should be buying Scottish land.

Great to hear from Dr Shivali Fifield of Environmental Rights Centre for Scotland at the Scottish Environment LINK fringe this morning talking about the need for access to justice for nature - without the threat of legal action or enforcement we can't hold climate criminals to account properly.

LINK is delighted to host the first Fringe Session of the Scottish Greens #SGPConf chaired by joycemcmillan. Panellists will discuss ‘How do we deliver on our environmental ambitions?’ 🌱🌊

Absolutely brilliant that the Independent Human Rights Fund for Scotland is becoming a reality 🙌

Many people involved in creating this over a long period, with amazing folk from Scotland’s human rights civil society orgs being the originators of the idea💡

We are very happy to be joining Stop Climate Chaos Scotland.

As the Scottish Government prepare to publish its updated Climate Change Plan, we look forward to working together to push for renewed ambition on emissions reduction targets, a credible delivery plan, and #climatejustice for all.
