Latest The Herald series front has 'a good energy' about it...sorry. Design brief was a consumer focused concept, rather than our norm. A mere 7495 emails later, and here we are. Hope the print site has enough ink. Vicky Allan intro here - shorturl.at/ErDiI

Check this photograph. That's a heat pump outside a tenement flat. As Dr Jane May Morrison demonstrates it can be done.

What to do about the tenements is one of many issues I've been looking at as part of our new series, which delves into just about everything clean heat related.

Been fascinating working on next week's Herald series and digging around for heat pump truths.
Particularly enjoyed my heat pump tour to see how they work in the real homes of early adopters and what they had to do to make that happen.

We look beyond the political debate, dig into the research, talk to the experts, and track down stories of people who have installed and lived with heat pumps

Ashamed to say, I misheard a word on my recording of my interview with Patrick Harvie. He used the word 'mistake' not 'insane' about walking away from the Bute House Agreement. Corrected online version here. heraldscotland.com/news/24272948.…

Later this morning I will be appearing with others before a Scottish Parliament committee to argue the case for my Anti-SLAPP petition and protect Scotland from the malicious actions of Oligarchs and others who would abuse our legal system and silence criticism and free speech.

Totally agree. One of my kids is nearly done high school and has barely learned anything about climate change during all his time at school. Little bits, here and there. Interested to know other school experiences heraldscotland.com/news/24245344.…

Back from holiday and only just reading this now. Brave stuff. Echoes things I have thought and felt.

On some issues, it seems to me, it's near impossible to say things without channelling/triggering some sort of hate, and yet we must try.

Thank you Dani.

Really looking forward to chatting with Edinburgh author and journalist Vicky Allan at this event. It's more than 7 years since I discovered a note about my 5 x gt uncle being a famous comedian and friend of Walter Scott on a scrap of paper in my mother's papers The Edinburgh Sir Walter Scott Club
