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.
Across England we've had the sunniest March ever recorded and the 3rd driest March on record! For growers and farmers, the glorious sunshine was frequently accompanied by a dry easterly breeze, exacerbating the drying effect on the soils: for us this meant ewes with lambs in fields but the grass not growing.
The Climate Ambassador Programme is funded by the Department of Education and delivered by the Met Office to help schools achieve their sustainability goals, and turn climate ambition into climate action.
On Wednesday 26th March we hosted an online Change Makers meeting with Peter Lefort from Green Futures Network at the University of Exeter.
