ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECTS
A.Home Pick Up
Stuck at home? No transport? Things too heavy to carry?
Don´t throw anything away! We´ll collect all your rubbish, from newspapers,
glass bottles and cans, to old furniture. You´re welcome to come to our visitor
centre and tell us who you think we can help in your area.
B.Your environment
Contact our educational organisation if you would like to
know more about helping the environment in your local area. A typical visit
from one of our experts includes a short speech and discussion, as well as
plenty of brochurres to help you advertise in your neighbourhood.
C.Share your car
Are you anxious about pollution? Looking for ways to save
energy? If you only travel occasionally, our car sharing project is the answer!
Just borrow one of our cars when you need to make a long journey and you can
save petrol and money.
D.Environmental Science Week
During the week, the local museum will focus on how we
will be heating our homes, running our cars and growing our food 50 years from
now. The display will include many ideas you can use at home today so come
along and collect some information.
E.The future is here!
This week, the city´s three biggest garages are joining
together to organise an exhibition of the latest environmentally friendly
transport ideas. From clean, affordable fuels, to brand new models and even
electric vehicles, there´ll be something there for everyone!
F. Neighbourhood Collection
Next month we´re collecting old computers in your area –
the more we recycle, the more money we can put back into local projects. But
remember, we can only pick up electrical items. Please, don´t leave paper,
glass bottles or metal cans for us to collect!
G.City Geographical Society
Interested in the environment? Keen to support an
international project? Come to our series of talks on global warming at the
town hall this month, and learn more about this important issue. All money from
tickets sales goes to research companies around the world.
