Hi,
Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog. As we all know Climate change is happening worldwide and is destroying animals and habitats, plants, our oceans and land everywhere. Bovey Climate Action is a small group set up to “educate, encourage and enable people to combat climate change”. They believe that small changes on a local basis really can make a difference.
They do this in many ways, one of which is by holding campaigns. They have already made Bovey Tracey plastic bag free and aspire to do much more in the future. They also own a community garden, were anyone can go and help and they then sell the produce to raise money.
Recently, they have provided Bovey Tracey Swimming pool with a solar panel, which will help warm the water (it is an outside heated pool). With the money that the BTSPA (Bovey Tracey Swimming Pool Association.) have saved from not paying to warm as much water up, they were able to replace the slabs around the outside of the pool, and after the season ends will be able to re-vamp the spectators’ area and make it a lot more family friendly.
These are only a couple of examples of the work carried out to date by Bovey Climate Action. I feel that they do not get nearly enough recognition for the important issues they tackle.
Thank you for taking your time to read my blog. Please read the questions below and leave me a message! For more information please visit www.boveyclimateaction.co.uk
Before you read my blog, were you unaware, against, or aware of Bovey Climate Action? What about now? Would you be willing to help Bovey Climate Action in any way? (Farmers market, community garden, leaflet distribution etc.)
Thank you again, Bethany
Hi Bethany,
ReplyDeleteI was really interested to read your blog. Prior to reading this I was totally unaware of Bovey Climate Action Group.
Although I had heard Bovey Tracey was a plastic bag free town, which I think is admirable and believe more towns etc should follow their lead, I wasn't aware of who was responsible for setting this in motion. Small changes by everyone do make a difference!...like the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle that together create a bigger picture.
I'm not in a position to help BCA as I live in another town, but I do support what they are doing, and would like to encourage the same values and atitude in my own town.
Hello bethany,
