Here are some actions you can take to reduce your emissions and encourage action by others. I pledge to:
- Ring my energy supplier and see if I can switch to green energy. If not, I will switch to another supplier
- Educate myself about the science and impacts of climate change – see our links page
- Walk, cycle, use public transport or lift share to travel to work
- Work out my own carbon footprint using a simple calculator
- Do a ‘home energy check’ to find out how I can save energy in my home – Energy Saving Trust
- Reduce my holiday air miles by 50%
- Reduce my meat consumption
- Contact my MP to encourage them to take action on this issue – Find your MP here
- Take any broken goods to a local Repair Cafe to see if the can be fixed rather than disposed of
- Share this list with friends, family and on social media to encourage wider action
- Offset any unavoidable emissions
- Join or support a group working to reduce emissions
