How does it work?• At your monthly meetings and through the
magazine• Each month – three actions to choose from:• Bronze 20kg CO2 saved over a year• Silver 50kg CO2 saved over a year• Gold 100kg CO2 saved over a year
• At the next meeting the secretary will record who did which challenges (honour system)• WI house will publish a scoreboard to show which
WI is saving the most CO2

A few details and the one rule• You can do more than one action a month• You or your secretary do not need to do any
calculations – just tell us what action(s) each person took.• Alternative actions are available on the Hampshire
website
• This is a change for life – try it for the month but it is over the year that it will make a difference
