The Amazon rainforest is under attack, mirroring our relationship with the planet as a whole.
Drawing on the work of the āGesturing Towards Decolonial Futuresā collective, this session will create a space to discuss and dive deeper into the denials which enable our colonial, violent and unsustainable ways of being.
It will be an attempt to open the possibility of developing a new relationship with ourselves and the more-than-human world we co-exist with.
No cost. Online event.

Doors at 7pm, come early to discover climate groups & activists operating across Scotland. Discussion will begin at 7.30pm.
For too long, representations of climate action in the mainstream media have been white-washed, green-washed and diluted to be made compatible with capitalism.
We are living in an economic system which pursues profit above all else; harmful, oppressive systems that heavily contribute to the climate crisis, and environmental consequences that have been toned down to the masses. Tackling the climate crisis requires us to visit the roots of poverty, capitalist exploitation, police brutality and legal injustice. Climate justice offers the real possibility of huge leaps towards racial equality and collective liberation as it aims to dismantle the very foundations of these issues. In her debut book, campaigner Mikaela Loach offers a fresh and radical perspective for real climate action that could drastically change the world as we know it for the benefit of us all.
Written with candour and hope, It’s Not That Radical will galvanise readers across generations to take action, offering an accessible and transformative appraisal of our circumstances to help mobilise a majority for the future of our planet.
Practical and urgent – this is a clarion call for transformation from the front lines of the fight for people and planet. I have no doubt It’s Not That Radical will become an indispensable toolkit for a new generation of activists – Naomi Klein
Come and celebrate with us – not just this phenomenal new book, but the possibilities it creates and the movement it is part of.

In 2014, residents of Fairbourne were watching their local news when they found out they were to be Britain’s first climate refugees. Their town was set to be decommissioned and depopulated by 2054. Housing prices dropped overnight, insurance disappeared and life savings were lost in the chaos.
Off the back of an impressive fiveāstar run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe,Ā Swell follows the story of two siblings caught in the purgatory of a fictional but analogous town, ready to be abandoned. This evening of captivating live theatre is followed by a discussion and Q&A with Anna Beswick of Sniffer and Swell director Tom Foreman as we explore the changing coastline of the UKĀ and the future of our climate refugees.
