ACTIVIST IN TRAINING
by Hollie Dimmock
Welcome to Cosmos!Â
Environmental justice is a passion of mine and the forefront to this site. The name Cosmos, not only meaning the universe or the entirety of the earth, but also my birth month flower that symbolises balance and justice, two crucial elements in combating climate and environmental issues. I am still learning but this is a safe place to document my progress, and I'm looking forward to sharing the journey with you.

NICE TO MEET YOU
Welcome to Cosmos!
Welcome to my blog, a place where I can share my journey and progress exploring environmental issues and viable solutions. A little information about me- I live in Devon on a smallholding with a few animals and an allotment where we grow our own food and plants. I will probably talk a lot about our progress in the allotment and with the animals, as I love finding new ways to make them happy!
​
I studied Law at the University of Buckingham and an LLM Global Environment and Climate Change Law at the University of Edinburgh. I was fortunate to live in Edinburgh for a year, I have also visited some amazing places that I will explore further in my blog. I have a big family and spend a lot of time with my twin sister, younger brother, and sister. I am a Brand Ambassador for Earth Friendly Group and I volunteer for the North Devon Marine Project.
​
The climate crisis, environmental degradation, and injustice are the critical threats facing today and future generations! Cosmos will not have all the answers to these issues, but creating a balance between social needs and the health of the environment is essential and will be focused on a lot in my posts. The aim is to spark conversations around these topics, provide some answers, add to research, and promote positive solutions for the future.
​
Everyday I am learning new tips and tricks on living more sustainably, improving my gardening skills, and the best way to take care of my animals. Please reach out and engage- I’m happy to hear from you and learn together :)
