Today I had a meeting with John Willott from the International Faculty. He had been cc-ed on the approval of my international travel authorisation, as he is interested in climate change and its consequences. He and Paul Wetherly (also International Faculty) are leading the TQEF funded project "Embedding Climate Change in the Curriculum", and he was interested to hear about the project in which I was involved. I explained the scope of the project "Voices of Yorkshire and Gujarati Rivers", and he was keen to provide some of his vugraphs about climate change.
We agreed that it might be a good idea to bundle the activities at Leeds Met regarding climate change, considering that environmental issues are high on the agenda at Leeds Met. We discussed the idea to create a kind of working group, maybe with an online repository to make resources and information about climate change (e.g. data, references) available to all interested people.
