Climate Week enters its second round

After its success last year, Britain’s biggest climate change campaign, “Climate Week”, enters its second round on Monday, 12th March 2012.

Climate Week offers the opportunity to show how we can combat climate change. It gets organisations, groups and individuals on board to create a more sustainable, greener future with plenty of events and actions going on throughout the UK.

Of course, the Newcastle Sustainability Team will be there, too!

To celebrate we are hosting a special event 12.00- 2.00 pm on Tuesday 13th March for all Newcastle University staff and postgraduate students. The event will be held in Devonshire Building, and gives the opportunity to find out more about what the University is doing to reduce its environmental impact, as well as what everyone can do in their own home.

The focus is not just the usual ‘we want to cut 10 % emissions by turning off the lights’ philosophy, but goes one step further by being a week where everyone is encouraged to help in a creative and fun way.
