Here at St Mark’s we are committed to aiming for Net Zero Carbon by 2030 and we have made good progress so far:
• Installing solar panels and batteries to reduce electricity drawn from the grid
• Converting more lighting to LED in both the hall and church
• Holding services in the hall on “Green Sundays” to reduce gas consumption
• Installing remotely operated thermostats to monitor heating more closely
• Using the hall rather than the church whenever possible
The next step is to replace all the church lighting which currently uses expensive halogen bulbs with fittings which will use LED bulbs. The cost of this project will be almost £20,000 but we have been accepted on to a matched grant scheme being run by the Church of England so only have to raise £10,000 of that ourselves.
