Dear CNU friends and supporters,

another month has gone by and record temperatures have hit the world again.

There is really no time to waste boosting our efforts to reduce carbon emissions.


So if you are in Sheffield and feel like getting involved, why not come by our next monthly open meeting to hear about ongoing and new projects that reduce carbon emissions locally.


We will meet this Thursday:

Date:        2 August 2018
Time:        5.30-7pm
Location:  Room K14, Hicks Building.

Many of our current projects are around climate communication, based on last years George Marshall 'climate communications' workshop. The recordings of this workshop is now available on our YouTube channel, including some fabulous short interviews with attending guests.

Well worth watching if you have a bit of time. The videos are available here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgwZ6u9z4Fnf_2N82_X-Dxw/videos


During this Thursday meeting we will play a number of short audio interviews from the climate communication hub's barstool conversations project at the recent Sharrow Festival. With many thanks to our project team! Really exciting to hear what people know and think about climate change locally.


There is much more in the pipeline, such as our 'Systems change' guide, a whole new documentary and indeed some good progress with the all important University sustainability strategy. >> A launch event is in the making...

There is now also some more information about goals and progress of the University Sustainability Strategy available on the new overarching University sustainability pages here: https://www.sheffield.ac.uk/about/sustainability/strategy-and-governance


More on Thursday... and please bring good climate news stories and any projects you might want to share or get started.


Hope to see you soon... and if you can't make it please just get in touch via email, Facebook, Twitter!

Thank you.


Your CNU coordinator team.

Dear CNU members and supporters, 

another month has gone and our regular meeting is near. 

It would be great if you could come along and contribute to our projects or start your own projects with our support. 

Here are the meeting details: 
Date: 5 July 2018
Time: 5.30-7pm
Place: Hicks Building, Room F35 

As usually, after the meeting we will likely have a drink and perhaps some food in the Uni Arms to socialise a bit. ;-) 

We currently

• have several video training and projects going on
  
• our Guide writing team is in the final stages of editing our 'guide to what works’ with regards to the needed systemic change around university sustainability (now adding illustrations, getting printing quotes etc) 
• our climate communication team is engaging more and more people and develops projects such as the ‘pub stool conversations’ 
• we follow the University sustainability strategy and are going to discuss progress and possible launch
• and more
  

Bring any good news along, meet some of our CNU team members and get involved. 

Our climate needs all hands on deck. Unfortunately it is not just a nice coincident that we have so much sun! :-( 

Would be lovely to see you on Thursday. 

Your 
CNU coordinators
