Eastbourne takes first steps towards carbon neutrality with environment event- in pictures

Hundreds of people flooded into the Welcome Building last weekend for an event which is set to help the town organise to achieve true carbon neutrality by 2030.

The event comes after the council’s declaration of a climate emergency and the formation of a new organisation, Eastbourne Carbon Neutral 2030 (ECN2030) which has been designed to help the town drastically reduce its carbon footprint.

Last weekend’s event gave attendants the chance to meet the organisations involved, listen to talks from a variety of environmental interest groups, field ideas and start a discussion which might, eventually, help the town achieve carbon neutrality by the end of the decade.
