Environmental campaigner and activist George Monbiot is to speak on rewilding in the Cairngorms National Park next week. The Guardian columnist will be giving an evening presentation focussing on rewilding, and outlining his own thoughts on current approaches to managing National Parks and protected places. He will also be signing copies of his latest book on rewilding, ‘Feral’.
George Monbiot’s talk will take place at the Boat of Garten Community Hall on Thursday 15th May at 7pm. It is free to attend but booking is essential – the talk is almost certain to be full. There will be tea/coffee and cake afterwards.
