I attended the Climate and the Arts event at stage@leeds today with many hats on including Yorks Life Aquatic Climate Action Leeds & ZeroCarbonYorkshire great to be able to talk about how the arts can engage in sustainability.... #climate #arts #Leeds

Who do I know in Yorkshire who works with schools helping children/teachers understand about renewable and kinetic energy, in a practical way?
So show them solar, bike power, battery, wind, etc?
I want to apply this to a real process converting community playboxes.

Great interactive day with stage@leeds University of Leeds, Cultural Institute SAIL
discussing the realities, challenges & opportunities for creative sustainable arts practice in a changing world. Particularly enjoyed playing with pliers & wires. There's a show title in that!
