Education and engagement are vital in tackling climate change. By providing knowledge and awareness about the environment, we empower individuals to make informed decisions and take meaningful action. Engaging people in the climate challenge fosters a sense of responsibility and collective effort, driving positive change for a sustainable future.
The Fair for South Brent, on the 16th July 2022, drew around 1300 visitors to learn more about sustainability from various stalls and activities focused positively on themes around community, nature and climate.
July's Sustainable South Hams event saw a group visit the Apricot Centre at Huxhams Cross Farm to find out more about the important work in permaculture design and regenerative agriculture taking place there.
Sustainable South Hams held an open meeting to share the interim results of our ‘Reaching Out’ programme, launch our new website, and to discuss the barriers to and solutions for groups and councils achieving their nature and climate ambitions.
