A community group working to reduce
the carbon emissions of east Oxford
Low Carbon East Oxford is a grassroots community group made up of residents of
east Oxford who have come together with the collective aim of reducing the carbon
emissions of our local area to help tackle the climate crisis.
About
In the face of the climate emergency it is easy to feel that we can’t possibly make a difference. But when many individuals take action - no matter how small - it can make a big difference. Low Carbon East Oxford is a small, friendly bunch of people living in east Oxford who are doing just that: coming together to take small climate positive actions, and trying to help others do the same.
We are a CIC Community Member of the Low Carbon Hub, as well as part of Community Action Groups (CAG) Oxfordshire.
Our projects
Since we were set up, we've worked on several campaigns to reduce the carbon emissions of east Oxford, including: thermal imaging to reduce home energy usage, promoting safe cycling for all, reducing air pollution, encouraging local and seasonal food, and more.
We're currently focusing on work to help improve insulation and reduce draughts. We also aim to improve awareness about the issues with energy efficiency in our local housing stock and what can be done to improve this.

We also recently worked to increase tree cover in east Oxford. Find out more about our current and past projects on these pages.
