MY PLEDGES
Here you can make pledges or change any that you have made. For more information on how to achieve a goal, each pledge below is a link to the appropriate section in ‘What can I do?‘. If you are unsure of the importance of an action, most sections in ‘What can I do?’ link to the corresponding section in Why does it matter?
Sometimes there is a single general pledge in the subsections below, and at other times there may be several pledges each of which can help towards achieving the goal. The more specific pledges are intended to help us to focus our efforts. But all are intended to address the priority areas for action.
Reducing emissions can be achieved in many ways and to varying degrees. The variety of pledges reflect this and provide options for different circumstances.
Please post your pledge certificates and posters on social media, along with pledge counts, when they become available.
To bring climate action into everyday life, please put up posters in your home and on noticeboards locally such as at work, in community centres and in your local shop. A key part of our role is in spreading change through our actions becoming known to others in our social groups and online.
