Lodged by Lorna Slater (Scottish Green Party) Standard Motion 10 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament congratulates Porty Community Energy for sharing its exhibition, "Travel Agents of Change – From Edinburgh to a Sustainable Destination", across the capital city; understands that the exhibition features stories from local people who have "bucked the holiday trend and opted not to take a cheap flight to their vacations from the capital, choosing to travel more slowly instead"; thanks all the contributors to the accompanying zine and to the exhibition, which will open at Bellfield, the Portobello Sailing and Kayaking Club, the Water of Leith Visitor Centre, alongside Flight Free UK, and Edinburgh’s Union Canal; notes that Porty Community Energy is a community organisation in east Edinburgh, with an interest in reducing carbon emissions and helping the community transition to low carbon living, and commends all staff and volunteers who promote energy saving, clean electricity, low-carbon heating and greener transport.
