SUMMARY:Monthly Climate Café - Plastic-free Fife in Action!
DESCRIPTION:Be part of tackling climate change – join us at our monthly climate cafes for films\, guest speakers and discussions. \n\n\nFrom food choices to toiletries\, clothes to gadgets\, what we bring into our homes\, gardens and lives\, many of the things we buy and use contain plastic. Plastic is a useful material\, but it can also stick around in the environment for ages\, harm wildlife\, spread toxins\, and contributes to climate change.  \nIn the first part of this month’s online Climate Café\, Plastic-Free groups from across Fife will be sharing their stories and successes on their local\, community-driven war on plastic waste.  \nWe will be focusing on finding practical solutions to reduce the everyday plastics that use and bring into our lives in the second half of the event\, with an interactive workshop to identify and create opportunities to eliminate disposable or avoidable plastic. \nThe event will take place on Zoom.  \n\nBooking Information \nThe event is free but booking is required as places are limited.  \nWe’ll send out a joining link to attendees to allow them to join on the day.  \nIf you have any problems booking\, or any questions\, please phone 01592 858458 or email kitty@greenerkirkcaldy.org.uk.

SUMMARY:Climate Friendly Homes
DESCRIPTION:Are you interested in having a warmer\, more energy efficient home\, with lower energy and repair costs and a reduced carbon footprint? Are you thinking about switching to an electric vehicle and want to know more about how it could complement home renewables? \nWe are spending more time at home\, and our homes are now doubling up as workplaces and schools\, so it makes sense to manage our energy use effectively. Since a third of our emissions come from heating and powering our homes\, reducing our energy use is good for the planet as well as our purse. \nAt this event\, you’ll hear about: the importance of taking a whole-house approach to cutting your energy usage and improving efficiency; practical and affordable ways to make your home comfortable and healthy; and we are using how tools such as draught testing and thermal imaging to help you make long-lasting reductions in your carbon emissions. \nYou’ll also hear from experts at Home Energy Scotland on a range of improvements to make your home warmer and more energy efficient whilst reducing running costs. Find out which home renewables would best suit you – and the funding available to make these larger changes. You’ll also hear about how the transition to electric vehicles can help you to make the most of any energy you generate at home. Home Energy Scotland will also be sharing how they have recently helped other households become more climate friendly. \nThe event will finish with a question and answer session\, giving you plenty of time to get advice about your own home. \nWe will be using Zoom to host the event. A joining link will be sent out once you have booked your place.

SUMMARY:Streetlife: Feetlife (kids online art workshop)
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our online kids art workshop for ages 5-9 and their families. Conjure up your perfect car-free neighbourhood at our Zoom workshop. What would it look like? We’ll make a collaborative map of a town where you could play and run around without worrying about traffic.  \nYou’ll need pens/crayons/pencils and paper as a minimum\, but other materials are fine to use on top of that. Let’s try to imagine a whole town that is perfect for outdoor play!  \nArtists Catherine Lindow and Hazel Terry will lead the workshop. They love drawing and can’t wait to hear your ideas! \nZoom is great for collaborative workshops – we ask that cameras and microphones be switched on so that we can share and discuss our drawings. We will also be joining up our work using screenshots\, so let us know if you are uneasy about photos (your child need not appear). \nAll participants will start with the same basic shape on a piece of paper – this can be emailed to parents for printing. If you don’t have a printer that’s no problem – we will give really simple instructions so you can draw it yourself (straight lines to a given size\, no artistic flair required)! \nYounger participants may need help to make best use of Zoom. Parents are encouraged to be present to offer assistance. \nThis event is part of Kirkcaldy Car-Free Week. \nBooking Information \nThe event is free but booking is required as places are limited – please book a separate space for each child. We’ll send out a Zoom joining link to attendees nearer the event. \n If you have any problems booking\, or any questions\, please phone 01592 858458 or email info@greenerkirkcaldy.org.uk.

What is it we are trying to protect and at what cost?  And what might a responsible\, regenerative and resilient community look like? \n  \n\nhttp://https://vimeo.com/163775375 \n\n  \nBooking Information \nThe film showing and discussion is free but booking is required as places are limited. \nWe’ll send out a joining link to attendees to allow them to join a couple of days before the event. \nIf you have any problems booking\, or any questions\, please phone 01592 858458 or email info@greenerkirkcaldy.org.uk.

SUMMARY:Monthly Climate Cafe: The True Cost of Flying
DESCRIPTION:Be part of tackling climate change – join us for monthly films\, guest speakers and discussions. \nThis month we will be hosting an online event: a screening of the short film The True Cost of Flying followed by an online discussion. \nThe costs of flying seem to become less and less. But does this reflect reality? Or is the true cost of flying a price we will pay later? \nFlying has become so cheap due to a fierce price war and years of government subsidies. As a result\, in the drop of prices passenger numbers have increased dramatically. Due to this flying is under threat of becoming the greatest single source of pollution. After years of delays the electric automobile is finally beginning to become more popular\, but where is the green revolution in the skies? \nBut just as in the days of the Wright brothers’ passionate pioneers are currently experimenting with small airplanes and are already making their first test flights. Their future dream is that one day we will be able to transport much more by air powered by hybrid and electric engines\, with far greater ease\, cleaner\, more quietly and sustainably. They are now still working somewhat secluded on a technological revolution of hybrid and electrically-powered airplanes. For decades surprisingly\, little fundamental innovation has taken place with the big boys Boeing and Airbus in the area of preservation. \nOur post film discussion will include thinking about whether these technologies are realistic and truly the future of flying or are just another example of greenwashing\, how we can persuade people to break their flying habit and will look at what campaigns currently exist to encourage people to holiday at home. \n \nBooking Information \nThe film showing and discussion is free but booking is required as places are limited. \nWe’ll send out a joining link to attendees to allow them to join a couple of days before the event. \nThe video is hosted on YouTube and some of the film has subtitles. \nIf you have any problems booking\, or any questions\, please phone 01592 858458 or email info@greenerkirkcaldy.org.uk. \n
