We are Reading’s biggest network for collective action on climate change
We're here to help Reading achieve its goal to be net zero - and a better place to live - by 2030.
You can get involved as an individual, an organisation, or both. There are countless creative ways to be part of Reading's journey to net zero. (A good place to start? Adopt our Reading Climate Pledge for Individuals or Organisations!)
Our growing network is supported by a voluntary steering group made up of climate leaders from local businesses, the Council, university, charities and other organisations. Together we convene the annual Reading Climate Festival; our town’s 5-year Climate Emergency Action Plans; a newsletter and this website.
Reading is facing a climate crisis and we are all part of the solution
We can stop adding to the causes of this global crisis and build resilience to its effects
Joining forces will help us overcome challenges on the path to net zero
