The formation of the Action Hubs should not duplicate existing networks but should add value to the climate conversation with an action orientated remit. Hence Derby Climate Coalition was asked to set up the Community Hub.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This has been done, and we have established the following remit<\/p>\n<ol style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\n<li>Engage everyone living in Derby in helping to tackle climate change\u00a0to explore lower carbon options, including heating, travel, waste and food<\/li>\n<li>Promote and develop an action plan for communicating climate change and supporting practical initiatives<\/li>\n<li>Develop core messages focussed on different audiences, including faith communities and the education sector, that can be used to help engage groups and individuals<\/li>\n<li>Build on existing educational strengths and promote knowledge transfer through the taught curriculum, placements and research.<\/li>\n<li>Contribute to a net gain\u00a0in\u00a0biodiversity and increase engagement with our natural environment<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While the issue of the climate emergency is extremely political the hub is non-partisan and as such does not support any political parties. Participants are united by the need to take action over the climate emergency.
