The UN says that ‘with a climate cataclysm looming … current plans are wholly insufficient.’ At our current global pace of carbon emissions, the world will burn through its remaining “carbon budget” by 2030. All countries both cause and suffer from the problem so need to act in concert.

At our 2023 AGM, NCW members called on the international community to co-operate to radically strengthen climate action plans. Most people are worried about climate change, but they feel frustrated and pessimistic about it. Forty-five percent of young people globally, say their feelings about climate change negatively affect their daily life and functioning: And the feeling that governments are not doing enough is linked to climate anxiety.

But there is plenty that can be done. Join us in a discussion about UK plans, how the government can improve wellbeing through nature and create green jobs, what other countries are doing and how NCW can put pressure internationally. 

We are currently inviting guest speakers to talk to us prior to the group discussion, so please watch out for updates. To book your free place, please follow the link below:
