Tuesday I attended an Environment, Climate Change and Land Reform Committee meeting.  I also met with Dr. Luke Warren from Carbon Capture Storage to discuss climate change and the Scottish government’s role.  Later I attended receptions for Scotland’s Tree of the Year and HALO Trust.

On Wednesday I started out with a Brexit and the Economic Outlook meeting then attended a National Lottery drop-in event.  Later I went to a Scottish Countryside Alliance dinner.
