Did You Know...???
​​​​
-
31% of UK household carbon emissions are caused by space and water heating.
-
To achieve absolute zero carbon by 2050 we need to cut our energy use by 40%, this is alongside advances in renewable energy technology.
-
Shutting a shop’s doors in winter can halve its energy use and therefore reduce its carbon emissions by 50%.
-
One study found that up to 7% of a fridge’s energy is expended in cooling down the warmer air that rushes in when the door is opened.
-
Many fridges (manufactured before 2015) contain ‘F-gases’ in their cooling mechanism - these gases have up to 23,000 times more impact on climate change than carbon dioxide – so fridges must always be very carefully recycled.
If your parent or carer is happy for you to do so, you could email us a photo of your challenge (no children in photos please) or post on Instagram #warrior4climate
