Make a clean air pledge

We think that everyone can -and maybe should- play a part in cleaning up our air. You could pledge a small but significant contribution. Before or on the day you're invited to:-

Look at the pledges made already by others
Make a clean air pledge of your own and share it with others
Help celebrate and share everyone's pledges at the evening meet up and join the discussion

DISCLAIMER: participation in all of our Clean Air Day Bishopston activities is on a first-come, first-served basis, and is subject to any numbers limits applying to the venue (especially in the event of wet weather). Attendance is at your own risk...and we hope you enjoy taking part!

This is very good news. Now we need all the local supermarkets to stop selling disposable BBQs to prevent damage to the soil on the Downs, St Andrews Park and Horfield Common. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/mar/09/waitrose-and-aldi-to-stop-selling-disposable-bbqs?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other

“After November 5, we could have wept. There was rubbish everywhere, at least a dozen huge bags when collected. The whole place was trampled, grass crushed, mud churned up, trees broken. Local people have said how shocked they were to see the state of the place, and have supported our decision to close it down."

Short film made 9 years ago when Costa moved to Gloucester road. Good to see that most of the independent traders are still with us and more have arrived. https://youtu.be/TXfZ1YsrglQ

This is a mess after Nov 5th partying. The Narroways Nature Reserve is suffering from nature depletion and the volunteers are at a loss of how to change the behaviour of the people who do this. There will be a litter clear up on Sunday morning if anyone wants to help.
