Shrinking the footprint
Shrinking the footprint is a campaign by the Church of England to reduce its carbon footprint.
The campaign is being led by the
carbon emissions from Church activities, structures and processes to 20% of current levels by 2050, in line with the recommendations of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change.[2]
The campaign follows a discussion at the 2005
