A Day in the Net Zero Life - All Stories

This collection of stories are ‘sketches’ of possible net zero futures imagined by members of the Islands Centre for Net Zero (ICNZ), who are based across the Scottish islands. They are not intended to limit the future but, instead, open up the possibility for what living and thriving in a low carbon future could be like for everyday islanders. The footnotes connect elements of the story back to ICNZ activities and aims, as well as related net zero achievements across the islands. There are 6 stories in the collection. Created by the ICNZ Vision WorkGroup in September 2025. Written by Laura Watts. Contributions by Paolo Cherubini, Leanne Fischler, Kirsty Groundwater, Mark Hull, Karen Jamieson, Matthew Logan, Jordan Low, Joseph Najduch, Elaine Salomon, Claire Thomson, Catherine Waters.
