Two really important things to remember about Clean Air Day

1. There is so much help available for businesses wanting to reduce their carbon footprint, learn more about sustainability, get their hands on funding to help pay for energy-saving projects, and make their way along the road to Net Zero.
2. We need Clean Air Day to be every day of the year, every year. This might sound daunting, but remember #1 – there’s so much help available to you!

Discover the resources and inspiration provided by Global Action Plan, the charity behind Clean Air Day.

Don’t worry if you’ve missed Clean Air Day 2022 – remember, every day can be Clean Air Day if we all pull together! So, use the resources, messaging and inspiration provided any time you wish.

The theme of Clean Air Day 2022 is: “Air pollution dirties every organ in your body. Take steps to improve your health this Clean Air Day.”

What did we do for Clean Air Day?

We brought together businesses and representatives from Global Action Plan, Buckinghamshire Council and other stakeholders to outline all the support businesses need to reach Net Zero.

This included:

• A networking lunch with representatives from Buckinghamshire Council, Buckinghamshire Business First and Global Action Plan explaining how businesses can adopt electric vehicles and create low carbon workspaces. There was also an extra special prize up for grabs - an EV Track Day experience at Silverstone!
• ‘How to market your green credentials’ – an insightful workshop that revealed how businesses should best promote their sustainability journey, avoid ‘greenwashing’ and engage staff and customers on the road to Net Zero.
• Drop-in support and advice -  businesses held one-to-ones with Low Carbon Business Advisers from Buckinghamshire Business First who explained the support available to help them reduce energy and costs and develop a Net Zero action plan. One-to-ones were also held with Keith Cotton from Global Action Plan who shared information and advice on the adoption of electric vehicles for employers and employees in Buckinghamshire.
