We all have a responsibility to do our bit to protect the environment in which we live and work. It’s not just about meeting carbon reduction and net zero targets. It’s about us all working together as a community to become sustainable in our own settings, providing future generations with greener and cleaner space to live and work. And of course, embracing the health and financial benefits that come with being carbon neutral.

This information is to help you understand what you can do to improve your environment and tie in with our Climate Emergency Response Plan (CERP). Whatever your age, gender, race or profession, we want you to get involved. Let’s act today to protect our tomorrow.

So, how can you do that? Here’s an overview of the many ways for you to get involved.
