Climate Action Programme: driving positive change
Our Climate Action Programme has been running for three years and offers free, practical help for organisations to reduce their carbon emissions, support nature, and prepare for the impacts of a changing climate. In our latest report we’ve outlined how the programme has continued to reach new organisations, as well as support our existing members to take positive steps for climate and nature.
The programme is kindly supported by Bristol City Council, NatWest, Redcliffe & Temple Business Improvement District and this year City Centre Business Improvement District also joined as sponsors, allowing us to provide tailored support to local businesses. The Climate Action Programme is now well established as a source of inspiration and support for organisations across the city.
“Bristol Climate & Nature Partnership are a fantastic and passionate team that has delivered a series of well-attended and extremely engaging events to support businesses on their climate action planning journey. They are driving change in our city for a greener and more sustainable future, and we are very proud to be working with them to achieve this for businesses, and the wider community.”
Vicky Lee, Bristol City Centre Business Improvement District
We continue to see organisations of all sizes and sectors determined to progress with their climate goals. Over the last year we’ve supported organisations on their climate action journey through several events, sector specific activity, resources, and expert support.
The highlights from year three include:
- 13 Climate Action Programme events and workshops held on topics including carbon literacy, decarbonising buildings, and creating a climate action plan
- 479 people attended our events
- 9 resources created on topics such as tackling business waste and sustainable procurement, as well as several case studies
- Our resources have now been viewed over 15,000 times
- A new partnership with City Centre Business Improvement District and targeted engagement with businesses in this area, alongside Redcliffe and Temple
- 30 Climate Leaders supporting each other to accelerate climate action
