The church have also launched a campaign to switch off
unnecessary lights, improve draught proofing and keep heating to a
minimum.
The panels were installed with the help of grants from the Low
Carbons Building Programme and EDF and are the latest stage of plans
by Redland Park to cut their carbon footprint.
The solar panel launch was the start of several months of "Green"
activities leading up to the major climate change conference in
Copenhagen in December 2009.
Ed Milliband had already learnt of Redland Park`s green
campaigning when he met up with Dougie Burnett and others from the
church church at the Operation Noah Day of
Action at Victoria Tower Gardens when we took 20 Year 5 children up
to 10 Downing Street.
Redland Park has also recently organized two public lectures on
Climate Change aimed at encouraging people to look at how they can
reduce their carbon footprint using simple methods. Links have
also been established with local campaign groups.
