Join us to help make a difference!
Oxford Friends of the Earth works to protect and improve our environment local and nationally. We are part of the Friends of the Earth global network working in 75 countries.
Here in Oxford and across the county we work on:
• Climate action – we push for stronger policies and promote clean energy solutions and actions to make Oxfordshire a genuinely ‘zero-carbon county’.
• Air Pollution – we work for tighter controls on pollution across the county and we have our own pollution monitors
• Trees and nature – we want to see more space for nature, and to double tree cover across the Oxfordshire in the next 25 years.
• Transport – Oxfordshire needs an integrated transport system that means that people don’t need cars for most journeys
So why not join us? You can sign up for our free monthly mailing by clicking here:
If you want a greener, zero-carbon Oxfordshire, so do we – so please get in touch. Our mailings will keep you up to date with local action, and we have volunteer groups working on these issues.
