In January 2020, Action Porty signed the Communities Call for Action pledge – https://www.climateaction.scot/ In doing so we acknowledge that the world is facing a climate emergency, and that the time for action is right now.

Community groups across Scotland have a key role to play in tackling the climate crisis, and those signing the pledge call for more action from all levels of government and commit ourselves to action on the climate emergency.

We are aiming to complete the solar PV installed on the large hall roof in March 2020. We will be installing bike racks, and are exploring other ways of encouraging people to arrive by public transport, foot or on bike, unless they need specific other forms of transport.

There is so much more we need to do – including ensuring users of Bellfield are kept snug and warm without our heating the planet – so this is just a start.
