About Going Carbon Neutral Stirling (GCNS)

Our vision

To create a low carbon future in Stirling where everyone wants to live and work with others to promote lives that are healthy, happy and community-focused.

Our Aims

GCNS is a behaviour change model which aims:

• to create, sustain and evaluate meaningful and collaborative carbon reduction through our Carbon Cutter Plan
• to achieve between 8% to 10% CO₂ reductions each year for each participant
• to create a tipping point in Stirling by engaging over a third of the region’s population
• to create a toolkit of best practice that can then be used elsewhere in the country
• to inspire and support politicians who make choices which protect our population against the impacts of climate change
• to promote a greater sense of wellbeing in Stirling by creating communities that are safer, stronger, fairer, greener, healthier and more connected
