Climate action starts here
We're facing a climate and nature crisis and it’s affecting us here in Scotland. Our actions can make a big difference, with the most impactful actions being to drive less and install a heat pump.
Why these actions matter
Not all actions have the same impact. Driving less and installing a heat pump make the biggest difference for the climate and for you.
Transport
Heat pumps
Home heating creates 18% of Scotland's emissions. Heat pumps create a consistently warm and cosy home, with fewer emissions.
