Some of the actions underway
This year, we're making it a top priority to calculate the greenhouse gas emissions generated by HMS. Understanding our starting point is crucial to see where reductions can be potentially achieved.
Some projects have been started at Mid Herts Centre for Music & Arts (Mid Herts):
- enhance nature. We've built our first Bug Hotel and introduced a dedicated wildlife area
- installed recycling bins onsite
- our Instrument Manager is working with partner organisations to recycle instruments that can't be repaired to reduce landfill waste
- exploring energy efficiencies
How can you help?
Help us to ensure waste is disposed of responsibly by putting any rubbish into the correct recycling bins. This will ensure bin contents are not
contaminated.
Help us to keep our grounds litter free so we can all enjoy the area.
Please don't keep your car engines running whilst parked to help with air quality.
