Team Green Britain – let’s go for green in 2012
July 10 is the first Green Britain Day – an initiative sponsored by EDF energy, the first sustainability partner of the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games as part of the lead-up to the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
EDF Energy is encouraging people, including schools around Britain, to ‘do something green for the team’ on Green Britain Day, creating a wave of tangible action across Britain.
People are invited to join Team Green Britain, a community aimed at harnessing the power of collective action. Developed in association with the Eden Project, the website suggests new actions to take on Green Britain Day. The innovative website features five areas of interest – Home and Garden, Food, Lifestyle, Travel and Money – with teams within each, offering practical and effective ways to live lower carbon lives. Team Green Britain will provide ongoing support to help people make long-term, low-carbon lifestyle changes on the journey to 2012 and beyond.
Team Green Britain is about encouraging all of us – at home, work, or play, to make a positive difference and show the world that Britain is leading the fight against climate change. You can learn more and get involved here: http://www.teamgreenbritain.org/home.
