What can we do in Lymm to ‘nudge’ us into changing our behaviours towards our use of energy in the home and when we are travelling to work or on holiday? There is a wealth of information and advice on what to do but many of us just keep on doing what we have always done despite the fact that we can save money as well as energy and carbon if we make some changes.

Let’s have some ideas and discuss how they might work in Lymm. Some examples could include

  • Energy ‘champions’ – people/households who have made big savings and are prepared to share their experiences of how they did it.
  • Get a local ‘celebrity’ to support and promote a campaign e.g. for more cycling or using the bus
  • Organise a competition between households and/or streets to reduce energy/carbon by the greatest amounts over a fixed period of time
  • Initiate a promotional campaign to make it ‘smart’ to be low energy/carbon etc etc
