At the beginning of August ’21 we had the first meeting of the group called Eco Vision for St. Michael’s.

We had a list of objectives  briefly set out below and the Eco Church online questionnaire designed to search out our ability to make additions and improvements in the many areas in which we operate.

  • Renewable energy
  • Install automatic movement sensors to switch off lights
  • Solar panels
  • ASHP for heating/hot water 
  • Utilities
  • Green suppliers
  • Recycling
    • Introduce double-sided printing to reduce paper waste
    • Implement an e-waste policy to properly recycle everything
    • Donate old but still functioning electronic devices to charity
    • Promote the purchase of second hand furniture 
    • Change to A+++ electrical appliances
    • Insulation of windows and doors
    • Gardening, landscape and biodiversity
    • Grow our own flowers
    •   Introduce non-toxic cleaning products
