🌿💚 Climate action starts in our communities!

What a brilliant day at our Climate Action Week event in Ennis! 🌍

From growing food and sharing seeds to live cooking demonstrations, a free book swap, planting bulbs with the kids, saving energy, exploring home retrofits, swapping clothes and discovering creative ways to reuse and upcycle, there was something for everyone!

A huge thank you to all our stallholders, community groups, local organisations and everyone who came along and made the day so special. 💚

The day was a wonderful reminder that climate action doesn't have to be complicated or expensive. It's about sharing ideas, learning from one another and finding practical ways to make a difference in our everyday lives. Through our work at Clare Local Development Company, we're committed to supporting communities across Clare to be part of that change, ensuring that no one is left behind in the transition to a greener future. 🌱

Because a just transition isn't just about where we're going, it's about making sure we all get there together. 💚
