What is it?
10:10 is helping to coordinate 10:10:10, the biggest-ever day of positive action on climate change, on Sunday 10 October, 2010. From sumo wrestlers cycling to training in Japan to 10,000 schools planting trees in Croatia and Russia, from a carbon-cutting telethon on national TV in the Netherlands, to hundreds of people in the UK sitting down to low-carbon Sunday lunches, this is going to be a really inspirational day. What are you doing for 10:10:10?
What can I do?
Across the world, thousands of people will take simple steps to reduce their emissions, cutting carbon and sending a powerful message to world leaders that people everywhere are ready to tackle climate change.
You could mark 10:10:10 with a low-carbon Sunday lunch, make your home or workplace more efficient, or maybe try something extra-ambitious.
10:10:10 Health
At 10:10 Health I am suggesting that organisations consider the following activities for 10:10:10:
- Sign up your staff and members individually. Imagine the effect if all your staff and members cut their emissions by 10%?
- Hold a low carbon food event. Watch the video from the highly successful event run by UCLH in the summer.
- Join the NHS Forest and plant a tree or two on the 10th.
If these ideas don't inspire you check out this list from 10:10 HQ.
Finally, please log your event here and do send me a photo afterwards so we can show the world what you did.
Best wishes
Tim
