Climate Action Now

	Let’s work together to make North London climate-friendly
Together we can!

EcoCounts runs a Climate Action Group. Joining us costs nothing but your engagement!

Wondering how you can tackle the climate crisis?

You may think alone you can’t do very much, but as a part of a group, even small contributions make a difference. Join EcoCounts and you join a community of like-minded people. Together we can work out the best and most inspiring ways to live more sustainable, environmentally-friendly low carbon lives.

This is a community approach to a global crisis. Everybody brings their own passions to the group, and finds out the best way to tackle whatever they think they can manage. Whether you’re looking for the next challenge for climate champions, or quick wins for high burners, the EcoCounts community covers the whole panorama of sustainability. Get involved!

This is how we work:

at the heart of it, we are building and trying out a new approach to tackling the climate crisis, focusing personally on our carbon footprints and weaving our efforts in with business and government action
if we can save the climate, we must save nature too – all-round sustainability is the big picture
we meet up regularly in real life, sometimes on zoom, to keep group dynamics from getting old
we form 5-strong accountability sub-groups. Accountability is the secret sauce to keeping things going
we have a great combination of online platforms to collaborate and progress projects
our newsletter makes our activities public, so people can see how “eco” works – KISS!
