It's Earth Hour 2021 today and we're taking part!
Today we are deomstrating our commitment to conserving natural resources and helping to do our bit to save the planet by taking part in Earth Hour 2021. We'd love all our members and local communities to do the same and commit to doing everything we can to save the environment.
Matt Jones, District Commissioner says, "In the Scouts we care about our environment and we help to shape future generations and so it is only right that we do this with the most conscious of mindsets. We know we are in a global environment emergency and so we're committed to reducing our impact and helping to shape better futures."
In Birkenhead we have continued to replace our lighting with energy efficient LED lighting, improving the insulation of our buildings and replacing old inefficient windows with modern double glazed units to help conserve heat.
