Wantage and Grove Green People (WGGP) is a group of people who are concerned about the effects of climate change. By working together we hope to increase awareness of the issue and reduce carbon-producing activity in the local area.

  What we've done so far 

To date the group has organised a number of events and campaigns.  Some highlights have been

• A debate on tackling climate change with speakers from different political parties and from a carbon counting group, along with the manager of Didcot Power Station.
• A screening of Al Gore's film "An Inconvenient Truth".
• A campaign to reopen Wantage and Grove railway station.
• A green village at Wantage's Rock in the Park event, with a range of stalls on transport, the home, energy and waste.

What We Plan To Do Next

The more involvement we have from the community, the more we can do.  We need to continue to raise awareness of climate change.  As well as this we would like to influence the local carbon footprint more directly, for example by campaigning to promote green forms of transport.

 

We Need Your Help!

Whether you can spare a little time or a lot please join us in our attempts to combat global warming in whatever ways we can.
