Young people have been busy improving the green spaces at Ardwick Youth Centre. Some raised beds have been built and a covered seating area has almost been completed. We were very lucky to have several weeks of sunny weather whilst we were working on this. We have also been busy working on "Uncommon Shorts" a project seeking to raise environmental awareness through visual media.
For more pictures and info see our facebook group.
Meanwhile in Manchester: In the run up to key climate talks in Copenhagen this December, people are beginning to take environmental action all over Britain and the world. The 10:10 campaign has been launched to try and encourage people to reduce their emissions by ten percent in the next ten years. There are many ways to reduce your emissions, from cycling to work, changing your lightbulbs to getting involved in local gardening projects. However, if we are to move towards a more sustainable world we all will need to make changes, groups such as the climate camp and Manchester climate action are active in Manchester trying to spread the word about environmental issues and how we can collectively take action.
