Low Carbon Scotland: Young People's Consultation

As part  of the  Low Carbon Scotland Public Engagement Strategy, Young Scot  was approached by the Scottish Government to deliver a consultation with young people, seeking their views on the strategy and  gaining  an understanding of what young people in Scotland think about the issue of climate change.

More specifically, the consultation explored the areas of action  laid out in the Public Engagement  Strategy (home  energy,  travel,  food  & consumption), gave  young people the  opportunity to  share their experiences and  express their views on climate change more generally, and enabled young people’s experiences and views to help shape the future development of how climate change targets are met.

Read the report below to find out more on the young people’s findings and recommendations.
