It’s Friday and the end of Day 5 Strath Union and 'ATP @ COP26' Hub. What a week it’s been! Today we had lots of things going on – not just at Strath Union but all of Glasgow. 

Patrick Harvie and Lorna Slater presented with life membership for Strath Union

We were delighted to present Patrick Harvie - Minister for Zero Carbon Buildings, Active Travel and Tenants’ Rights -  and Lorna Slater Minister for Green Skills, Circular Economy and Biodiversity with lifetime memberships. Patrick Harvie gave a short Q&A with attendees, spent time with our brilliant Hear to Listen team, and checked out Re: Store.

After yesterday’s successful banner making session, Strathclyde’s Climate Action Group and students were at today’s Fridays for Future March – they even spotted Greta Thunberg! If you want to get involved with the Climate Action Group, you can find out more on our website.
