Abstract...Our research highlights the role that new decentralised water technologies could play in mitigating these effects and documents the prevailing barriers to implementation. We go on to suggest that the climate related water related climate problems of Scottish Islands are a bellwether for similar problems in our cities. The engineering and legislative lessons learned from deploying new decentralised technologies on our Islands now may be invaluable in transitioning to equitable and sustainable infrastructure in the future, everywhere, even in our densely populated cities.
