Our World Our Impact, Glasgow Science Centre’s public engagement programme for climate change, launches The Hub, an on demand digital platform which features exclusive online content to encourage people to get involved in the climate conversation
The Hub has something for everyone, whether you’re looking for an introduction to climate change and topics such as biodiversity, or if you’re interested in finding tips and tricks to do your part in saving the planet, to taking part in environmental activism to create a greener, healthier and fairer future.
While there’ll be lots of content on The Hub when it launches, GSC will also be releasing new content every day on The Hub from 16-29 Nov to get everyone interested in climate change.
Here are some of the highlights:
The Promise
The Promise is beautifully animated climate film about how one person can make the world greener and fairer. The film, hosted on the Our World, Our Impact Hub, is based on the New York Times Best Illustrated Book of the same name, written by Nicola Davies and illustrated by Laura Carlin.
Climate Voices
What are your hopes for the future? With one year to go until Glasgow hosts the world’s biggest conference on climate change, join some of the Climate Voices such as National Chef of Scotland, as they explore the future we all want to see.
Climate Action Challenge
What do Abba and Mariah Carey have in common in tackling climate change? Join eco warrior and environmental activist Laura Young as she challenges us to consider what we can do in our daily lives in tackling climate change. It’s easier than you think.

Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
