Really happy with the unanimous passing of the motion today by the councillors.

Thanks to @JackRMCaldwell (If he is still using Mastodon!) for bringing this motion forward today, and the other councillors who weighed in with their thoughts and amendments.

The fight continues though! Watch this space!

Extra motivated to get out for some litter picking soon. 😉

Lovely walking (& virtual) tour along Water of Leith by my fellow GCP member & tour guide Paul. Thank you so much I've been missing the river so much😄

PS. We can watch some of his previous tours on his YouTube channel here: youtube.com/@VirtualToursEdinb

There's something rather lovely about mossy trees and snowdrops.

It’s an issue that hits close to home (literally) and taking care of the Water of Leith & The Shore is where I’ve been spending my volunteer time as of late.

Sewage outlet run-off and recently the presence of oil/diesel slicks settling into the shore basin amongst the wildlife is a large cause for concern!

I passed three of the six statues (called 6 Times) on a walk along the this morning. There are another two at the in , but I missed them as the path was closed and I had to make a detour. The sixth is at Ocean Terminal in Leith, but I didn't go down that far.
