Our Story, Our Future: The Fuath

Glasgow Science Centre's Our Story Our Future is an opportunity to explore the traditional art of storytelling. See how it can inspire minds, strengthen our emotional connection to local environments, and help us to shape our own visions of Scotland's Green Future.

Glasgow Science Centre’s own Abi Jeorrett takes a deep dive into the rich world of Scots folklore to discuss one dreadful monster that might shine some light on the very earliest days of conservationism in Scotland. Listen along, and get involved with a chance to make a monster of your own creation.

This video prompts viewers to get creative, to fashion a creepy creature, and to give it a job that can help us to work towards a greener future. The possibilities are limitless, how can our monsters highlight some very real climate issues?
