extinction rebellion york

We work together to plan actions, talks, events and training. We also join larger protests and demonstrations. You can find pictures of our most recent demonstrations here. We’re always looking for new ideas and skills to create effective actions. To find out how you can get involved, visit our Join Us page. Extinction Rebellion York (XR York) is part of the international environmental pressure group Extinction Rebellion. . We use non-violent direct action and civil disobedience to urge decision makers and leaders to act now to reduce the impact of climate change. Our campaigns led to the City of York Council declaring a climate emergency in 2019 and pledging to reach Net Zero by 2030. We have 3 key demands: Tell the Truth: The government must declare a climate emergency. Act Now: The government needs to act now to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to Net Zero by 2025. Beyond Politics: The government should create and be led by the decisions of a Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justice. Our core principles include non-violence, building a regenerative culture, challenging the toxic system we live in, breaking down power hierarchies, and achieving climate justice.

esg solutions

London

A warm welcome to our website visitors! Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) factors allow businesses to measure the sustainability credentials and the corporate impacts of an investment, typically through benchmarking of non-financial performance against peers. In an evolving context where stakeholders become even more important than shareholders, ESG unveils the integrated value of an asset, beyond its short-term financial performance, based on the associated environmental and social impacts and outcomes. This concept is not new. In the 1990s the industry used to refer to it as the "triple bottom line" (i.e. People, Planet and Profit) as opposed to the "single bottom line" represented by the figure usually recorded in traditional business accounting at the end of a profit and loss statement. Now, pushed by threats such as climate change and biodiversity collapse along with the rising influence of Generation Y ("Millennials") who expect more environmental and social responsibility from the companies they work for and buy from, investment managers have decisively turned their undivided attention to ESG and sustainable developments that allow not just the economy, but also the society and the environment to thrive.

greenheart learning partnership

Thank you for visiting! Please note, this is an old-fashioned website. It is, however, a calm and relaxing site (despite the state our world is in), filled with useful and fascinating info about transformative education for sustainability and greening the heart of education. It contains no ads that jump around or pages that pop up. It contains no gratuitous "white space" or stock photos that keep scrolling forever. And it contains no slickly disguised requests for your money (although we do have a Greening the Heart of Education course in the works!). But you will always know where the Nav Bar is! <— Beach Fairy GreenHeart Education is a primer on transformative education for sustainability. Here you'll find what you'll need in order to genuinely "green" ... your classroom your curriculum your students' learning your school community and your life's work as a teacher. It's all here, dedicated to all the children, of all species. "We share one atmosphere, one climate system. It knows no borders. [...] Science shows that changes in the climate are widespread, rapid, and becoming more intense and affecting every part of the world. [...] It is now unequivocal that human influence is causing climate change, making extreme events more frequent and more severe. [...] Global warming of 1.5ºC and 2ºC will be exceeded during this century unless immediate, rapid, and large-scale reductions in greenhouse gas emissions, especially of carbon dioxide and methane, occur in the nearest future."

sound matters

London

About Sound Matters was founded in 2014, following a series of conversations between Mike Edwards (climate change and sustainability expert) and Harry Coade (music producer and soundscape recordist). These conversations, which took place in London pubs, cafes and galleries, were focused on how sound and listening could be used to create more sustainable and resilient futures. Mike and Harry discovered a unique and deep synergy between their disparate areas of expertise and began to further explore how they could apply this knowledge and insight. After delivering a series of lectures at leading universities in London, Mike and Harry began working on a number of global research initiatives, and academic courses, which were designed to discover more about how sound and listening could be used to understand the political, social, economic and environmental systems shaping the world. They also began working with a number of corporate clients who were looking for new ways of engaging their staff and stakeholders with the importance of creating business practices which were sustainable for both people and planet. From humble beginnings, Sound Matters has grown into an organisation which is widely acknowledged as a global leader in the use of sound and the art of listening to help individuals and organisations understand, and help solve, the most fundamental challenges facing the world. Sound Matters has a clear mission which is to create a universal culture of listening whereby every individual and organisation can access the power of sound and listening to create a better world.
