To coincide with London Climate Action Week, we take a look at cleaner air walking routes to Church House Westminster.
Our sustainability policy includes our commitment to being net-zero by 2030. We are conscious of our social responsibilities with regard to helping the environment through our working practices. Our future and the future of our environment are interconnected.
As a Platinum EcoSMART venue, we are always looking at new ways of lowering the carbon footprint of our events and the community in which we operate. Pollution and air quality continue to be a much-debated topic for action in a world city such as London
The Mayor of London, has, through the Mayor’s Air Quality Fund, supported the Cleaner Air Better Business (CABB) project, which has created an interactive map of London allowing visitors to enter their start and destination points and then be presented with a cleaner air walking route.
In this article, we’ll be exploring five different walking routes to Church House Westminster. As much as 30-60% lower air pollutant concentrations are displayed on the cleaner air walking routes compared to main street routes.
Next time you are visiting Church House Westminster, visit the Mayor of London’s website to find your cleaner air walking route, and thank you for choosing to walk.
