Warwickshire Climate Alliance
Warwickshire Climate Alliance (WCA) exists to provide a meeting place and hub for local individuals and organisations that are concerned and active, in one way or another, about climate change.
It is an umbrella organisation of Warwickshire environmental groups, devoted to pushing for stronger action within the county on the climate emergency. They aim to lobby and collaborate with county-wide agencies to develop a serious plan for transition to net zero greenhouse gas emissions as quickly as possible, and seek collaborations with other organisations to develop ideas for reaching that goal.
They also work to raise public awareness of the challenges of climate change, and to enhance the local connections that allow campaigners to share knowledge and collaborate in developing local campaigns.
Warwickshire Climate Alliance was set up in 2020 to provide a forum for local groups to collaborate. Initially they hoped to work in favour of a Yes vote in a local referendum on an increase in council tax to pay for a move to net zero in Warwick District. That never took place, due to the pandemic, but they continue to exist and work, with some successes — 200 people signed up for the local council elections climate hustings they organised, and they have run some good online talks.
