Carbon Impact Tool
Local Groups
Devon Energy Collective
Our aim is to take action to address the climate emergency and to deliver the Devon Carbon Plan by creating a Devon that runs entirely on green energy. We believe that, rather than buying power from outside the country, we can produce clean, locally owned energy here in Devon. This will significantly boost our local economy, retaining approximately £1.76 billion in our county and creating a local industry and jobs across the region.
Sustainable Dartmouth
We aim to increase awareness of environmental issues amongst residents, Councils, businesses & other organizations from the Dartmouth Cluster of communities. We have launched a website forum, responded to the Dartmouth Neighbourhood Development Consultation, linked up with existing local sustainability groups and are developing publicity material for distribution to organizations, businesses & individuals. We meet fortnightly on Zoom, and new members are very welcome - email Sune to join.
Sustainable Blackawton
