Projects for 2017
Plastics and packaging
Trying to get local shops to provide paper bags instead of plastic bags, eg for fruit and veg, and in general to reduce the amount of plastic that they pack foods in.
Energy saving
Trying to persuade the Highways Department to reduce the hours of the traffic lights at the M6 junction 40 and Kemplay Bank roundabouts.
Campaigning
Meeting with Rory Stewart to discuss packaging, to show support for the government’s plans to outlaw the use of micro-beads in cosmetic products, and to ask him how the government plans to achieve their obligations arising from the COP21 agreement.
Calculating our own carbon footprints and encouraging others to do so.
Local transport links
Working with the group reacting to the cuts in bus services in the Eden valley.
Interested in any of these?
Please come along to our next meeting to help plan how to make them happen!
