Committee on Climate Change Chairman applauds Climate Week Awards

Lord Deben Chairman of CCC

Lord Deben, Chairman of the Committee on Climate Change, applauded low carbon innovations from flood defence to bio-energy when he attended Climate Week awards at a ceremony in Parliament.

Winners of the UK’s low-carbon equivalent to the Oscars gathered at the House of Commons to receive praise for their outstanding achievement in helping to combat climate change.

Lord Deben said:

“I’m delighted that there were so many outstanding entries to this year’s Climate Week awards and congratulate both winners and finalists for their efforts.”

“In particular I’ve been impressed with the range of innovative and inspirational projects and individuals who have found ways to tackle climate change across the UK. It illustrates the many ways in which organisations, big or small, can contribute towards creating a low carbon society.”
