Take up our 10 actions to help reduce your carbon footprint

We originally asked people in 2008 to adopt at least 5 or more of actions which were listed on a card posted through letterboxes (by hand) in the summer of 2008.

Once people had ticked off 5 or more actions they were asked to put the 'greening card' in their window. Over a 2 week period the number of displayed cards were counted. This provided a measure of how the town has reduced its 'carbon footprint'. 

This was the start of the campaign

Alresford schools can use the Greening Campaign as a catalyst for a range of low carbon activities linked to the National Curriculum.
