Climate change project

The Climate Outreach and Information Network (COIN) has launched a project aimed at mobilising the trade union movement on climate change.

The project, funded by Defra, plans to create a wave of community action on transport, cutting domestic energy bills, and food purchase and packaging. Communications union CWU, teachers’ union the NUT, civil service union PCS and lecturers’ union UCU will be working with COIN to create 1,100 action groups to spread the word in workplaces.
