The Climate Cafe Dunoon has evolved from the groups known as Gaia Gathering Dunoon and the Web of Life Book Club Dunoon. The book group started in January 2026 and closed with 7 members. We ha4 events at Gaia Gathering. Our first was a speaker on a local community food growing group and the conversation included 13 participants. Our second event was a screening of the People's Emergency Briefing film and around 20 were there. The discussion was fed back to our local MSP and a meeting has been arranged to discuss in August. Our third event was a creative sessions where we used recycled materials to explore songlines or song spirals as a means to connect to special place in Argyll. There we welcomed 5 participants who happily went home with meaningful pieces of handmade art that connected them perfectly to the land. In July 2026 we welcomed a local shamanic practitioner who gave a talk on shamanism and the connection that we have to the land. 5 participants attended and enjoyed a lively discussion and 10 minute shamanic drumming practice. The group will now meet as Climate Cafe Dunoon with Sue Rule at the helm, to discuss the outcome of the discussion and meeting with our local MSP Jenni Minto regarding the National Emergency Briefing screening and questions arising.

We are trying to share local projects and individuals so that all can become connected and in turn inspire/educate those who are new to talking about and exploring environmental issues.

We are in the process of launching a Climate Cafe in Dunoon. We are looking to provide a socially welcoming place to foster connection, conversation, collaboration and community.

There are many individuals and groups working within Argyll & Bute to address damage to the non-human world and to establish resilience in the face of climate change. There is so much knowledge and expertise already out there in our community and beyond. We hope to bring that knowledge here to be shared and explored, and signpost places where those who want to get more involved can find the best fit for their experiences, skills, hopes and dreams.
