Carbon Copy Podcast

There’s huge power in local action. From community groups to corporate partnerships, local authorities to charity campaigns – there are thousands of people across the UK making big positive impacts in the places where they live and work. The Carbon Copy Podcast gives a louder voice to some of those amazing people: boosting hope and progress by showing what's possible.


The pod is brought to you by Carbon Copy; a UK charity inspiring more big-thinking local action for climate and nature. We build community around solutions so people can copy what’s working. 


We’re looking towards a better future together that can be co-created today. Our resources serve as inspiration and are also instructive about what could be. The Carbon Copy Podcast is backed by a thousand climate action stories and hundreds of local Climate Action Plans from across the UK.


Join host Isabelle Sparrow, producer Bradley Ingham and a fascinating, eclectic mix of guests and co-hosts as we explore just how big local action can be.
