Janette EdmondsI am a human factors specialist working on industry and healthcare projects related to making ‘human work’ safer and I have lived in East Linton since 2010. I am part of the CAEL Twa Burns woodland project, took part in a series of carbon conversations and am an avid beach cleaner. We are privileged to live in such a wonderful community and beautiful place and I am committed to enabling East Linton to make a positive difference with climate change.

Brian McClellandI have children and grandchildren. I know that my duty is to do whatever I can in the hope that they may have a chance of living their lives a decent world. I have worked in medicine all my life. I am alarmed and angry about the speed of environmental destruction and global heating. I have absolutely no doubt that human damage to our planet is now by far the greatest risk to health and survival.

I’m a mum of two young children, and a past life working in international development and fairtrade. In recent years I’ve become increasingly aware that all is not quite right in this beautiful world of ours, and since having children feel even more compelled to do something about it. I’ve been involved in helping set up Climate Action East Linton.

I'm a stepdad, husband & structural engineer. I like rock climbing, photography, music and cycling. I started getting concerned about the climate crisis in 2017 and I’ve been getting more and more worried ever since. Eventually it made me quite depressed. Now I am doing something about it with a group of new friends I feel a lot better. It’s great to be part of a supportive group like this and I feel less helpless now.

My family and I moved to East Lothian a few years ago from Saudi Arabia. We love living in such a beautiful place to get out in nature and walk our dog. We do everything we easily can to look after our environment but it isn’t enough. I don’t think companies or the government are doing enough, either, and I feel powerless to tackle that as an individual. Through CAEL I hope that we can come together to make a bigger difference than the sum of our individual efforts.
