Networking built on tackling the climate crisis
The Government has set a target of becoming Carbon Neutral by 2050 before the point of no return; Other groups have stated we need to achieve this by 2030, with some experts setting the date even sooner. We feel the government will not be able to introduce the policies and regulation soon enough to compensate for the damage that has already been done. Two thirds of global emissions can be attributed to businesses; our theory is based on helping as many businesses to reduce their carbon footprints as possible. This may help businesses to become carbon positive helping to reverse climate change and preserve our beautiful planet for future generations. There are so many businesses wanting to reduce their carbon footprint but are not too sure on how to get started. Your first step should be to attend one of our events where we showcase companies who are already smashing it and introduce you to businesses who can help turn your business into a greener one

Look below and around the website for Coastwise activities in North Devon which has some of the most spectacular and varied coastal scenery in the country and wonderful seascapes. The coastal and marine life is amongst the richest in the country.
Wild and unspoiled places are interspersed by coastal communities and popular resorts where livelihoods owe much to the coast and sea.
It is the aim of Coastwise, an independent community initiative, to increase understanding of the coast, its wildlife, and its importance to North Devon in the past, present and the future. We do this through sharing knowledge, undertaking conservation activities and projects, and addressing current issues.
