About 2014

Go Wild and The Bee Line are both part of the Pachamama Project at the University of Edinburgh.

Our aim is to educate, integrate and engage the local community in a green campus initiative.

Einstein claimed at that when bees vanish “mankind will have just four more years to live; no bees, no pollination, no plants, no animals, no humans.”  The European honeybee delivers over $150 billion of benefit a year to humans.

This is why the Bee Line, an apiary project aiming to facilitate research and teaching about honeybees at Pollock Halls, together with Go Wild, a community garden project based on campus, intend to draw together educational and environmental concerns.

We believe it is an essential part of sustainability for the University of Edinburgh, the city and beyond.

On March 21st-23rd the annual Clinton Global Initiative University is held at Arizona State University. All six members of the Pachamama Project have been invited to attend the conference where we will be meeting with other university initiative groups surrounding climate, education, poverty alleviation, health and conflict resolution.

Keep track of our journey here!
