Barnet Climate Action Month
Skip to:
In 2024, the council launched Barnet Climate Action Month (BCAM) to deliver a programme of sustainable events across our borough from 10 June – 7 July 2024. The Council worked with community groups and Middlesex University to stage an exciting range of events, appealing to residents of all ages across the borough. Barnet Climate Action Month 2024 saw 25 events take place across the borough, amassing over 700 attendees. This included an Eco Show and Tell for Clean Air Day, two workshops run in association with Bloomberg on climate risk and a community wellbeing garden launch party with Incredible Edible.
BCAM also featured in London Climate Action Week 2024 (22-30 June), one of the world’s largest independent climate change events hosted by E3G (Third Generation Environmentalism Limited).
The aim of BCAM was to support our vision to become one of London’s most sustainable boroughs, raising awareness of climate change and kickstarting resident engagement and interest in sustainable topics going forwards.
BCAM closing event
BCAM was celebrated through a closing event held in collaboration with the Royal Air Force Museum, Colindale on Monday 15 July. The event featured an array of activities themed around Creativity and Innovation in Net Zero, including acclaimed artist Riya Gadher performing her song ‘Miraculous Wonders’.
It also featured the announcement of the winners of the BarNET ZERO Challenge, the launch of the Council’s first ever Sustainability annual report and presentations from community climate action groups formed in response to our Citizen’s Assembly on Biodiversity and Climate Change.
