Spotlight on Seaweed


There comes a time and place for all things and the spotlight is becoming focussed on seaweed for a variety of products. There are the Three Fs - food, fertiliser and fuel - and then the all-important medical and cosmetics components. Research has been conducted on aspects of harvesting and its findings are reported in an item from the BBC website. It is based on the Outer Hebrides while the two images shown are of Birsay - above by Five Senses Orkney - and below from the gallery of Living Art.
