We partnered with DESNEZ’s Energising Britain campaign to host the “after-party” drinks for their annual event across England.
All on the 6th of July, the events will showcase inspiring projects and highlight the power of community-led climate and nature action.
They are on a mission to make the UK a clean energy superpower.
Energising Britain is part of the Government’s commitment to involve people in climate and nature policy design and delivery, helping improve decisions and strengthen public participation in the transition.
Naturally, that community-led focus aligns well with our mission of getting people into pubs to start conversations.
I had a fantastic day in Manchester with lots discussion around how communities are ahead of the game and already driving a lot of the change.
There’s positive stories out there, but the people doing it are also the least like to want to share their stories. They’re too busy doing the work!
I heard about hydropower passion projects coming out of collaboration, electrified chip shops, and the frustration from teenagers constantly being given responsibility on Climate.
Also super lovely to sit down with Katie White OBE MP Minister for Climate to discuss her favourite order at the pub, and other important issues. Watch this space – Video coming soon!
Huge congratulations to Paul Riley for pulling together a successful day with such short notice. And thanks to Sophia David for inviting People Planet Pint to host the end of day socials.
