The Edinburgh Biomes project is a key part of the Botanics’ commitment to reducing its carbon footprint, with carbon savings of 17% expected through the creation of a new, efficient Energy Centre and the restoration of our Glasshouses.
Other projects, such as the purchase of electric vehicles and horticultural tools, will help to reduce our carbon footprint even further, while the recycling of glass from our Palm Houses will help to minimise waste.
