How can your organisation help?
Here are some of the ways your organisation can help.
If there’s anything that you’re doing that’s not listed below, help to inspire others and share your tips with us using this form.
- Map out your organisation’s impact on the environment and look at what you can change – like cutting down waste and reducing energy consumption
- Bring your team(s) on board – tell them of your plans and how each of them can contribute
- Check your supply chain – ask them what they’re doing to be more environmentally-friendly.
You could consider our North Tyneside Carbon Reduction Award scheme. This is for businesses or organisations to show their green credentials in tackling climate change by reducing carbon emissions. There are Bronze, Silver and Gold standards to work towards.
Please email marketing@northtyneside.gov.uk to be provided with our Action on Climate Change posters to use at your premises. We can also supply a 'We pledge our commitment to carbon net zero' window sticker when requested.
Environmental support
We recognise the impact of the rising cost of living on businesses across the borough.
Although we cannot help with rising costs, energy bills or supply chains for businesses, there are resources, support and in some cases grants available. These can assist your business to reduce its carbon footprint and become more sustainable.
This includes:
- a business carbon reduction awards scheme
- a toolkit to support companies adapt to future climate change
