Wouldn’t it be great to set-up Perranporth Low Carbon Limited ?
Attending some eco-build talks at the Eden Project, one of the speakers is involved with Hook Norton Low Carbon Limited.
It is an Industrial Provident Society, set up by Low Carbon Hook Norton members to help the community reduce its energy consumption, carbon emissions and save money, with a range of community-based schemes and individual household projects based on interest-free loans.
From the talk, it seems they coordinated getting funding and then the residents and suppliers to slowly help everybody (residents, the school, local firms ….) benefit (lower fuel bills, jobs to implement the projects …..) and move to a lower carbon / more sustainable village.
