Sustainable Cuddington Campaign Group

A group of residents begun work on bringing a new environmental focus to Cuddington. Our aim is to inspire the village with a common vision to act together on some key areas:

• Reducing energy consumption and emissions of global warming gases and other pollutants from peoples’ homes and public buildings.
• Improving biodiversity through creating and fostering opportunities for wildlife across the village and, where possible, in adjacent open and farmland areas.
• Waste minimisation through reducing its production and improving recycling further.
• Encouraging greater consideration of the emissions produced by transport and travel.
• Local food focus

 Recent Activities:

We meet about once a quarter to discuss the project and how we can move it forward. The main events in 2009 were:

• Film shows: The Age of Stupid, Money and Debt.
• Thermal imaging project, taking images of Cuddington homes and public buildings with a follow-up seminar to discuss the results.

We want to continue to build a team of people to help to make Cuddington a more environmentally friendly place by building up local interest and creating a momentum. If you This could be through taking a full part and helping plan and carry out activities, or in the background simply showing an interest.
