Climate Week is a supercharged national occasion that offers an annual renewal of the ambition and confidence to combat climate change.

It is for everyone wanting to do their bit to protect our planet and create a secure future. It aims to shine a spotlight on the many positive steps already being taken in workplaces and communities across Britain. The power of these real, practical examples – the small improvements and the big innovations – will then inspire millions more people.

We’re very excited to see that here in Dorset there are 6 private events and 3 public events planned to celebrate Climate Week.
To find a local event go to the Climate Week website and search your area: www.climateweek.com/find-an-event.

As well as the small steps you can take personally and in your home or business to save energy – see our section on your Renewable Energy Options for starters – you may also want to consider getting involved in a Community Energy Project. For inspiration check out the Bindon Mill Screw Turbine Installation – a local project which turned a disused water mill into a hydropowered renewable electricity generator –  perhaps you could help regenerate an old watermill near you, to power your community?! If you have any more ideas for Dorset community energy projects please do let us know!
