The following three videos have been commisioned by the Macaulay Land Use Research Institute to provide an educational resource to stimulate debate on climate change, explain the complex relationship between us and our precious water resoure, and outline how our Virtual Landscape Theatre helps us to understand landscapes of the past, present and future.

All videos are downloadable in Flash 8 and Windows Media Player formats.

In addition, versions suitable for dial-up (approx 56k) and broadband (around 1000k) may be selected.

All these options are progressively streamed to enable you to see the items without having to first wait for a lengthy download.

Dogs and Outdoor Access

The film was made as a collaborative project between the Cairngorms Local Outdoor Access Forum and the Macaulay Land Use Research Institute.

• The purpose of this film is to explore a range of ‘on the ground’ perspectives of outdoor access with dogs, as experienced in the Cairngorms National Park.
• The aim is to stimulate debate and encourage mutual understanding between different viewpoints, including dog walkers, recreational users, land managers, access professionals and policymakers.
