Bristol 2015 Blog post "How teenagers can help save the planet"

 

Bristol European Green Capital 2015 (Bristol 2015)

Bristol is the European Green Capital 2015, which is brilliant for my home city and and for someone like me, who cares about the environment. 

I am an Ambassador for Bristol 2015, along with an amazing group of conservationists, environmentalists and children’s cartoon characters. They include Tony Juniper, Simon King, Miranda Krestovnikoff and Shaun the Sheep! See the full list (with me at the top!) Bristol 2015 Ambassadors

What is European Green Capital 2015?

Bristol European Green Capital 2015

That means that the European Commission has recognised Bristol’s success in creating a green city with a high quality of life. 

As an Ambassador, I have written a guest blog called "How teenagers can help save the planet",  I hope other young people are inspired by my blog to get involved in conservation and environmental groups.
