As a finalist, along with 10 other community projects from around the country we will work and be monitored over the year for our ability to achieve a substantial reduction on carbon emissions with the communitys we work with.

We are very pleased that this project has been recognised as a innovative piece of work and will continue to build on the work of the past year – engaging with faith communities and supporting the projects they inititiate.  Birmingham Friends of the Earth continues to work at every level to ensure we raise awareness of environmental issues and the devastating impact of climate change.
