Climate Change Projects

LOCAL CLIMATE CHANGE PROJECTS

As young people – the next generation are our priority it seems right that the Goedgedacht Trust should also have an abiding interest in climate change and the future of our world, for without it there would be no future for our children.

We aim to make Goedgedacht farm carbon neutral as soon as we can and are experimenting with a range of energy options – solar panels on all our buildings, a bio-digester which is producing methane for cooking in the Conference Centre at Goedgedacht, earth brick making and wonder bags.

We are in the process of building a climate change path which will take visitors and particularly school groups through a range of energy saving options – wonderbags, light up your house, fog harvesting, organic vegetable growing, climate change plants , olive processing etc.

We hope that organisations and individuals will visit Goedgedacht and learn from the lessons that we will uncover as we go ahead.
