Climate Change
Think globally, start locally
Droxford Parish Council statement regarding Climate Change
It is important that all tiers of government/local authority engage in the battle to limit global warming. Droxford Parish Council has resolved to incorporate appropriate consideration of the impact of climate change in its decision making and communications. Its website will provide updates of community engagement resources and ideas that may help households within the parish to reduce their carbon footprint.

Reduce your home’s carbon footprint
Energy use in the home is responsible for around 20% of direct carbon emissions, the main greenhouse gas that is causing the climate crisis.

CLEAN AIR NIGHT 2024
We're supporting The Environment Centre and Global Action Plan campaign to raise awareness around the myths of wood burning.
The Environment Centre has a range of resources available to learn how to burn less, cleaner and better.
The campaign culminates in the first-ever #CleanAirNight on 24 January 2024, to shine a light on the uncomfortable truth about wood burning, urging residents to help protect themselves and their families from the harmful effects of wood burning.
