In this, hopefully thought-provoking, talk Roger asks his listeners what is nature to you, describes what is happening around the world and in Scotland, asks who is in charge and suggests what needs to be done.
This season’s Winter Talks will take place on the first Thursday of the month from 10 October 2024 to 3 April 2025 (with the exception of January); refreshments afterwards.
