Beyond Oil and Gas – What does it mean for Peterhead?

Join us for two short films, Offshore and The Future’s Not F*cked, exploring the world of oil and gas and what’s beyond it from the perspective of those who work in the industry and those who live in a region shaped by it.

As the climate crisis intensifies, it becomes ever more urgent that we transition away from burning fossil fuels. So, what does this mean for Peterhead, especially in light of proposals to build a new gas fired power station in the area?

Friends of the Earth Scotland are campaigning for a just transition, this means frontline workers and communities are central in shaping how their industry and the places they live moves towards a better future away from fossil fuels.

A discussion will be held following the screenings to find out how you can get involved in shaping the Just Transition in Peterhead.

🍿 Free popcorn will be provided for the first 30 attendees 🍿
