#IoDConvention2022 skills needed for boards? Panel highlighting imp. of climate literacy & #esg skills but not seemingly an issue for attendees on Slido. Dire predictions if we stay on course for 4 deg. warming - how much climate literacy do we have on local boards? @IoDGsy

[Jennifer Strachan @JennStrachan]

Would love to see something developed worthy of Victor Hugo for visitors and the Visitor Centre is an iconic building to house it. But why must a key tourism project like this be funded privately? @tothevale @steve_falla

[States of Guernsey @Govgg]
