paperboats

Paperboats is a collective of writers focussed on nature and environment in a time of climate and ecological breakdown. We are Scotland based and global in outlook, and write to affirm the astonishing life of this planet, and how its future may yet be shaped.

Their words resonate with ecological, human, technological and earthy questions. Power is addressed in the repercussions of our energy choices, but also in humans working together for common good and in sometimes relinquishing control so other species and habitats can flourish.

PAPERBOATS PODCAST

In each episode writer and researcher Ian Grosz talks with a different writer from the Paperboats collective – a group of writers working across Scotland and beyond to highlight the impacts of climate change, the ecological collapse we are witness to, and the things we can do to bring about positive change.
