It can be easy to think that climate change isn’

It can be easy to think that climate change isn’t affecting us here in the UK. However, it’s disrupting seasonal weather patterns and causing increasingly regular extreme weather events that are wreaking havoc for the environment, wildlife and people of the UK (and the world).

This week, we’ll be sharing:
- Evidence of the impact these weather extremes are having on people and the Ribble catchment’s wildlife
- Simple tips for how you can reduce your carbon footprint and contribute to the fight against climate change
- What RRT is doing to tackle climate change and improve the Ribble catchment for wildlife and people

RRT restores degraded peatland habitats and plants 1000s of trees every winter in a bid to store carbon and tackle climate change. Our Lancashire Woodland Connect campaign aims to plant HALF A MILLION trees over the next 10 years to remove 100,000 tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere, whilst also reducing flood risk, improving air quality and creating and improving habitats. You can donate to this project, if you wish, here: http://ow.ly/r2tC50CskNL

#RibbleCatchment #RiverHeroes

Your children are the river heroes of the future ✊

In the last decade children have been learning about rivers through our Rivers in the Classroom programme- and this summer it has been updated and it's better than ever!

The Trust's amazing education team have years of experience working with young people, and are all fully DBS checked. Together, they've created a programme of activities that are educational, fun, meaningful, and link to the national curriculum.
