Sept. 15 Is Carbon Day

Celebrate Carbon Day on September 15th!

At Carbon Day we believe that everyone should “PLAY A PART” and work towards the goal of reducing each person’s carbon footprint.

Inevitably, when going about our daily lives — commuting, sheltering our families, eating — each of us contributes to the greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change.

There are many things each of us, as individuals and organizations, can do to reduce our carbon emissions.

The choices we make in our homes, offices, our travel, the food we eat, and what we buy and throw away all influence our carbon footprint and if we become conscious of these choices, we can help ensure a stable climate for future generations. We believe in sustainability and the benefits a sustainable world can bring.

September 15th has been designated as the official Carbon Day Holiday. This presents each of us with the opportunity to create an event, large and small, in our own community to educate one another about energy efficiency and how to reduce our individual and collective Carbon Footprint.

We will provide you with materials that will assist in planning and setting up your own Carbon Day Holiday event.  You can register your events in our database and show how you are Playing your Part.
