Who we are

We are one of the UK's leading organisations set up to mitigate the damaging effects of climate change. We aim to cut carbon emissions - a contributor to climate change - by promoting the sustainable and efficient use of energy, water conservation and waste reduction. We are an independent, non-profit making organisation that acts as a bridge between government, consumers, trade, businesses, local authorities and the energy market. We provide impartial information and advice and have a network of local advice centres in the UK specifically designed to help consumers take action to save energy.

The problem

Most people now know that climate change is a problem, but are often unsure about what actions to take to be part of the solution. It is a common assumption that energy saving measures will be expensive or difficult.

The solution

Each person can make a difference, and if millions of people act the UK can deliver its ambitious climate change goals. We need 'low carbon citizens' to change behaviour and drive the shift to low carbon lifestyles.

Our mission

To lead 60 million citizens to act on climate change by helping everybody use energy efficiently so that every home is a low carbon home.
