“We can’t wait for little Freddie in year six to be the CEO of a company and make a better policy decision. It has to start now.”
Alex Green is head of Let’s Go Zero, a national campaign with a clear aim: to engage students in positive climate action and get all of the UK’s 32,000 schools to go zero carbon by 2030.
Green, who leads the campaign for the climate solutions charity Ashden, recognises the goal is ambitious – far more ambitious than the government’s target of achieving net zero by 2050. But it is, she believes, achievable with government support.
