Report about the Gödöllő Climate Club of Greendependent Association

October 2010

GreenDependent Association for Sustainable Solutions launched a Climate Club in Gödöllő in order to

  • make the information about climate change and energy saving accessible for everyone and a
  • motivate and support household level changes and commitments.

The Club helps you understand the connection between our fridge and glacier melting. It gives you tips on how to reduce the energy consumption (your bills!) and this way the environmental impact of our everyday life.

At the Club participants have some cakes and tea while discussing what they can do in their homes in order to reduce their impact on climate change. Every month they analyze the measured energy consumption and th e related carbon dioxide emission as well as share ideas and tips about energy saving and climate-friendly household. If requested, experts of GreenDependent Association personally examine the household saving opportunities for interested Club members.
