Hello- I had a call last week about Green Great Britain Week, and am writing to give you the heads up about this. Green Great Britain Week . The call was organised by the Dept for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy (which oversees both universities, and climate change management in the UK), with Natural England, National Trust, BBC, Womens’ Institute, sports networks, NERC, Community Energy England and Community Energy Scotland.

Green Great Britain Week will run from 15–19 October. The aim is to raise awareness of the connections between the environment and industry/tech in the UK, and connects with the Clean Growth Strategy. There is a focus on climate change (causes, mitigation, adaptation) and air quality. Seeing as climate change touches on pretty much everything, and you can engage with the week in whatever way you want, this is a brilliant opportunity to be part of a national event. Time is short, so badging up ‘what you might be doing already’ is also an option, and helps amplify your message. This is not a partisan event, but an exploration and hopefully two-way dialogue on challenges faced today and in the future, through the entanglement of society, economy and environment.
