Beat has two programmes that are working to tackle climate change - one by planting trees locally and another by helping community buildings reduce their energy and water use.
Take a look.
Other Beat programmes also help reduce climate change too by reusing waste - as with the Why Waste Programme, and the timber reuse project, and not creating waste with the real nappy project - we can all reduce waste going to landfill. This reduces the carbon foot print from the materials as it uses less energy to use something again or recycle it - than to make new from raw materials. Recycling and reusing also reduces the methane gas that occurs when products break down on landfill sites. Methane is a powerful green house gas 21 times worse than CO2.
We are keen to start other programmes tackling climate change - do let us know your ideas - or even better if we can work in partnership with you to deliver a programme.
