How to save energy

The latest video in our Climate Action series covers energy-saving tips that can reduce your charity’s carbon footprint while also being cost-effective. Part of the problem the charity sector faces in tackling climate change is not knowing precisely where to start.

While carbon calculators and environmental policies, though worthwhile, feel daunting at the outset taking on these energy saving tips is a quick way charities can take action to reduce their impact on the environment and become more environmentally-conscious too. Whether you’re turning off lights, laptops, or reminding others in your team to do so, every little helps when it comes to tackling climate change.
