HELP DECISION MAKERS PRESS THE GREEN LIGHT
The Climate Coalition have collectively unleashed a wave of support for action to protect the planet with the launch of this year's Great Big Green Week - a national call for action on climate change that's taking place in communities nationwide from 24th September - 2nd October 2022.
Great Big Green Week 2021 saw over 5,000 events encompassing bat walks and bake offs, festivals and football matches, murals and MPs in EVs, seaweed foraging and school assemblies. and everything in between. These events were hosted by teachers, bus drivers, sport clubs, artists, community groups, places of worship, builders - anyone and everyone who cares about climate change. In addition more than 200 Local Green Weeks organised by Great Big Green Week community hubs - celebrated local activity, raised the profile of climate change and showed why it is relevant to the community and local decision makers, putting pressure on the UK Government to act.
From film shows to nature walks, creation care conferences to complementary pollution and carbon emission free bus trips - these are just a few of the things that I found are happening local to where I live this year.
