My research explores the relationship between property law in Scotland and the climate emergency. Specifically, I am analysing various land use change policies available to the Scottish Government through an interdisciplinary lens informed by legal geography. Therefore, I interrogate the 'spatial' consequences of land use change to ask questions of the wider property law paradigm in Scotland, assessing whether central concepts such as ownership are compatible with sustainability targets including net zero.
