CSSC Green Mission Statement
At the start of Plastic Free July, a global movement to highlight and reduce the amount of plastic pollution, we announced our exciting new environmental initiative.
CSSC green is our pledge to develop a programme of local and national actions, events and activities to demonstrate our commitment to becoming more sustainable and reducing our impact on the planet.
We will provide the tools and tips to help members lessen their footprint, and recognise those areas and regions that best demonstrate their commitment to hosting green events and activities with awards and rewards.
We invite you to join us on our ongoing journey to safeguard the planet for future generations by sharing your ideas and proposals to live, work and play more sustainably.
