Crawley Climate Challenge

Huge Success at the Zero Carbon Green Fayre 2007

Sunday 8th July 2007

Several thousand visitors including the Mayor of Crawley attended the Zero Carbon Green Fayre on Sunday to enjoy all 'the fun of the fayre'. The weather was beautiful and the sun was shining all day. The Free Horticultural and environmental day was also based around leaving no Carbon Footprint and showing visitors how they can take positive actions to reduce their own Carbon Footprints.

Our Carbon Alley marquee housed technology that can be used around the home and in vehicles, information on how to offset your carbon and much, much more. The Balloon Pledge Marquee was incredibly popular with 100s of beautiful, brightly coloured balloons all with pledges to choose from - a great way to get everyone involved.

Each person pledging was entered into a draw to win either a Mountain bike or DAB wind-up digital radio. The lucky winners can be found in our News section

There will also be a prize draw following the marking of our Carbon Neutral Quiz so watch this space for the 3 lucky winners to be chosen.

The Farmers' Market and stalls were very popular as all produce sold was local and organic. The Drip's Ahoy and MoMo theatre groups held plays throughout the day and proved a magnet for all.

We had in excess of 300 pledges signed and the Energy Advice Centre spoke & gave bulbs to over 400 people, so a great achievement for the Crawley Climate Challenge 2007 Campaign.
