Eco Congregation Thought for the Week

It is reported that transport accounted for 36% of Scotland’s greenhouse gas emissions in 2018, mostly from cars. Over half of car journeys are 5km or less. If you can walk, cycle, use public transport instead you will be doing your bit
towards Net Zero Carbon!
