In this talk, Bruce Keith celebrates Scotland's rich underground heritage - both natural and the product of man's endeavours- and looks at the wealth of resources and infrastructure which lie beneath our feet and form an intrinsic part of the nation's history and geography. This illustrated talk highlights the diversity of 'life' beneath the surface of our land and water - from tunnels to caves to mines to pipes - generating hydro-electricity, providing an integral channel in our transport networks, rocks bearing oilshale, coal, oil and gas, and the granite, sandstones, slate and sands and gravels to construct the nation's built heritage, pipes to deliver us our water supplies and sewers to take away our wastes. And that legacy has an important role to play in Scotland's future, as we face the challenges of meeting the needs of modern society in a changing climate'.
