Take more action on climate change

Lofty ambitions

British houses have the worst insulation in Europe. All that warmth escaping from your roof means you have to spend more money (over £100 per year) on keeping warm and emit one tonne of CO2 per year.

Take the train

13% of the UK’s climate damage is from aviation. Try taking the train for your next business trip or holiday. Letting the train take the strain will cut CO2 emissions and can even work out cheaper.

Seeing double

Installing double-glazing can cut heat loss through windows by half. As well as saving up to £100 a year on heating bills double-glazing could also save about a tonne of CO2 a year.

Don’t heat the street

In the UK there are 11 million houses without cavity wall insulation and a third of the heat lost from an un-insulated house is through the walls. It is relatively cheap to carry out, about £200, and could save you about £90 on energy bills each year.

Here comes the sun

More and more people are heating their hot water by solar panels on the roof. This is one of the most efficient forms of micro-generation for many houses.
