Carbon Positive

Fife, since the Industrial Revolution has always been associated with heavy industry. The coal faces since the eighties have all but gone, some of them being built upon in recent years with private 'box' housing. This however is a wee jewel in the Kingdom's crown, a reminder that the hydrocarbon chain is alive and kicking. This is Mossmorran, Fife's Ethylene Plant, courtesy of ExxonMobil and Shell.

Victorian Gas Tank

This 150 year-old Granton gas tank has now been de-commissioned but is being preserved as an important symbol of our (Scottish) industrial heritage. Gas for domestic and industrial use is now stored under the water in the Firth of Forth and pumped ashore when required.
