Last year I wrote about Grangemouth's energy history for @energy-ethics.bsky.social. Half a century ago Grangemouth workers were put at the heart of the UK's energy economy - today they are being left behind. energyethics.st-andrews.ac.uk/blog/grangem...

I learned about Grangemouth when I worked on a CEE blog post with Riyoko last year (tinyurl.com/kbyxf46r). This event will provide a unique view into the front-lines of Scotland's Energy Transition and give a voice to those who we as a society cannot afford to leave behind. #JustTransition
The impending closure of Grangemouth oil refinery is a crucial story in Scotland's unjust energy transition. At 1pm on 11 Feb @riyokoshibe.bsky.social and I will present findings from interviews with Grangemouth workers @energy-ethics.bsky.social in St Andrews. Sign up to attend in person or online!
