How to become a Carbon Cutter
We are keen to recruit enthusiastic and self-motivated community-based volunteers to become Carbon Cutters (CC).
As a CC, you can help and empower your local communities to reduce their carbon footprint through a variety of fun and interesting projects. You do not need to have any experience, just a passion for the planet and an interest in reaching out to your community.
Your community can be anyone you choose, family, friends, work colleagues or the public.

You decide what projects you want to set up with your community. These will vary, being guided by you with ACT’s support. Projects could include:
- helping your family reduce their energy consumption and associated costs,
- organising a tool and gadget borrowing scheme,
- setting up a clothes swap,
- setting up a community owned renewable project,
- run your own energy roadshow or piggyback on an existing event.
Training and Support
The training programme provides Carbon Cutters with some of what they need to help the community mitigate Climate Change.
CC support group
Trained Carbon Cutters can join our informal support group on WhatsApp where we share ideas, challenges and general information, and our support lead can ask for expert advice from within ACT if needed. All of this gives us extra resource and confidence to pass the right facts to our communities along with effective ways of reducing emissions.
