The Second Community-Led Dorset COP is happening on November 2nd at Bournemouth University. With more of a focus this year on business involvement, several local businesses are supporting and participating in workshops, designed to help businesses become more sustainable, with sessions on achieving B Corp certification, reducing their carbon footprint and so much more. This is a great opportunity for local businesses to come together, to learn, collaborate and inspire. Dorset COP is organised by volunteers from ZeroCarbon Dorset, Sustainable Dorset, Dorset Climate Action Network, Efeca, East Dorset Friends of the Earth, and This Living Place, an initiative building the resilience of local environmental movements.
