Keele Green Festival
Keele Green Festival 2020 is exploring Climate Change and Social Justice through a range of workshops, talks, stalls and more. Since Keele declared a Climate Emergency in 2019, work has been taking place to get the university to zero carbon by 2030, but we can't tackle climate change in isolation - we have to ensure our actions promote environmental and social justice, both in developing countries, and in the UK. Join us for a packed programme of activities, learn something new, have conversations and get inspired to be part of creating a sustainable and just future, or maybe take on a climate challenge for festival (and maybe beyond?!).
