Tackling climate change
Reducing Carbon: Reducing Costs: in 2010Environment Unit - January 2010environment.unit@kirklees.gov.uk Kirklees Council have signed up to the 10:10 campaign, and we aim to cut our carbon emissions by 10% in 2010. This could bring savings of approximately £1.5million on our energy bills and also make our buildings run more efficiently in the future. Longer term we have also agreed to reduce our emissions by 40% by 2020. The 10:10 campaign is a national drive for individuals and organisations to commit to reduce their carbon emissions by 10% in 2010. The campaign comes from the team behind the climate blockbuster film The Age of Stupid. During 2010, the council will be doing some intensive work in some key council buildings, making physical changes to improve building energy performance and working closely with staff in those buildings to improve energy management. Individuals can also sign up to the 10:10 campaign. If you would like to find out more about the campaign, visit the main campaign website http://www.1010uk.org/ |
