A new hub for climate action in Cumbria opens its doors to the online world this week. The new Zero Carbon Cumbria website brings together all the great things happening across Cumbria to cut carbon emissions and help Cumbrians play their part in global action to stop the climate crisis.
CAfS created the website on behalf of the Zero Carbon Cumbria Partnership, so it’s exciting for us to see it go live and to celebrate all the climate action already under way, by people from all walks of life, from businesses to residents. The launch comes at a particularly topical time, with the UN climate summit, COP27, kicking off at the weekend.
The website is for everyone who lives, works or studies in Cumbria. Visitors can learn more about climate change, what’s causing it, how it’s affecting us here in Cumbria and what’s being done about it. It’s also the place to keep up to date with local climate news and events, and to see some great examples of people who are taking action in their work and home lives.
It’s also the website of the Zero Carbon Cumbria Partnership, where visitors can learn more about what the partnership is aiming to do and who’s taking part.
And it’s the online home of the Cumbria Sustainability Network, helping visitors to find their local community sustainability group.
The website also brings together information about the citizens’ juries that have been held in Cumbria so far.
So, why not stop in for a browse! You’ll find it at zerocarboncumbria.co.uk. The site will continue to evolve, but your early feedback would be very welcome, along with suggestions for other information you’d like to see there. Please get in touch – email [email protected].
