Air pollution is the biggest environmental risk to our health.

Reducing levels of harmful air pollution in our communities will help both children and adults live longer and healthier lives.

Cleaning up the air we breathe can also boost our local economy by improving our productivity, reducing sick days and alleviating the burden on our NHS.

Many of the solutions that will deliver cleaner air, like improving public transport and decarbonising our homes, will also help us cut carbon emissions and protect our natural environment.

Following the recent local elections, councillors across the country are deciding what changes to deliver for their community. With just two weeks away, now is the time to take action and write to your local councillor to ensure clean air is on their agenda.

Air pollution affects everyone’s health, but not equally.

We may be exposed to higher levels of air pollution because of where we live, and children, older people and those with existing health conditions experience the health harms of dirty air more than others.

Right now, councillors across the country are deciding what changes to deliver for their community. Can you help us to get clean air on their agenda?

With Clean Air Day just 3 weeks away, now is the time to take action by calling
on your local councillor to champion clean air in your community.

In just two minutes you can write to your local councillors by using our template letter here: cleanairday.org.uk

By coming together to take action on air pollution in our communities, we can help everyone live healthier and longer lives, boost our local economies, and make our towns and cities cleaner and greener.

Clean Air Day is just four weeks away and right now, councillors across the country are deciding what changes local people want to see. Together, we can ensure clean air is on the agenda.

On Earth Day 2026, students from King Edward VII School in Sheffield took part in a full-day environmental workshop delivered by The Green Estate CIC.

The experience supported their Good Life Schools project, equipping students with practical knowledge on climate resilience, biodiversity, sustainable urban drainage, and circular economy approaches.

Activities included designing bug hotels, exploring future-ready planting for urban spaces, and developing ideas to better connect communities with nature.

Students left feeling inspired to spend more time outdoors and to apply their learning to the development of their school’s balcony green space.

A huge thank you to The Green Estate for such an engaging day, and to the students for their creativity and enthusiasm!

AI data centres shouldn’t be used to breathe new life into dirty energy.

Today our team stood outside Drax’s AGM in central London to protest the use of dirty energy to power massive AI data centres.

Drax is a power station that burns trees to produce electricity and is the UK’s largest source of carbon emissions. Last year alone, Drax emitted 13 million tonnes of CO2 from burning trees.

Now, they want to build a massive hyperscale data centre right next door to their power station, which if approved, could mean they’re supported to burn even more trees than they do now and undermine previous government commitments to scale back Drax’s use.

We can’t let the rush to build data centres prop-up dirty energy and undermine climate targets.

Sign the petition today to stop Big Tech’s dangerous deals with dirty energy: https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/stop-drax-stop-dirty-data-centres

With just one week to go until many parts of the country head to the polls for local elections, we wanted to give a spotlight to these healthy air groups who have developed some brilliant asks and pledges to share with candidates.

Creating connected communities is at the heart of clean air work, so we wanted to give a shout out to these groups who’ve been working hard to ensure we see ambitious commitments for clean air in these elections as well as supporting you to have conversations with candidates over the next week!

In celebration of , students at both Canolfan yr Eithin in Carmarthenshire and Ecclesfield School in Sheffield have recently taken part in workshops as part of their participation in our Good Life Schools programme, learning skills to extend the life of their clothes to reduce waste.

Workshops like this show how education is a key driver of fashion system change — supporting young people to consume differently, create thoughtfully, and act locally .

Thank you to both schools for having us!

Yesterday we celebrated a major win for our legal challenge, when the developer of a planned hyperscale data centre accepted that it must be subject to binding environmental conditions, just three months after the UK Government conceded the case.

But there are still over 100 data centres in planning across the country, which is why we need your help.

There are only 5 days remaining to have your donations DOUBLED as part of campaign.

Every contribution, big or small, helps us pursue further legal action and support local communities going up against Big Tech’s vast financial resources and power.
