Unearthing the archives of the Scottish Campaign to Resist the Atomic Menace (SCRAM) at the NLS. For 20 years SCRAM campaigned and took direct action before merging with Friends of the Earth Scotland. Several boxes were still charred from a fire in their office!

I stumbled across a small wildfire in Blackridge, W Lothian, just as firefighters were showing up.🧯🙏🏻

Scottish Fire & Rescue issued an "extreme wildfire warning". Climate change is making these destructive fires even more dangerous 🛑
