We all face challenges when looking into the future but none as ever-present and global impacting as climate change and the sustainable development agenda. As a population we now consume at a rate unsustainable by the planet on which we live.
"We can take pride in Scotland's natural heritage, which boosts our enjoyment of life. It also provides employment in forestry, fishing, agriculture, tourism, food and drink. But we cannot afford to take it for granted. If we continue to put too much strain on our environment, future generations won't be able to enjoy it as we do."Environment Minister Michael Russell
