We sent Ben Cohen along to our event at Birmingham, to experience first-hand some of the buzz around the Big Green Challenge, as well as to meet some of the people behind the idea. Some of the potential participants were on hand to ask questions and listen to an inspiring case study of people working together to reduce their CO2 emissions.

Joan Ruddock MP - Parliamentary Under Secretary of State for Climate Change, Waste and Recycling, and Biodiversity has recorded a podcast about the Big Green Challenge. She speaks about her personal interest in the environment, some of the work she’s observed in her own constituency and the work Defra are doing on Climate Change.

It’s great to see that the Government are watching what happens with the Big Green Challenge and looking forward to seeing what ideas groups come up with.

At NESTA we want to learn as much as possible about how the Big Green Challenge works, about which ideas are out there and about how those ideas can grow. We’ll share these lessons with government, other funders and other organisations to try to make sure that, in the future - beyond the Big Green Challenge - ideas with the most potential to contribute towards solving big issues like climate change can be spotted and helped to grow.
