Sustainability

For a healthier, happier school, we are aiming to cut our carbon with Let’s Go Zero!

Let's Go Zero 2030 We're helping schools on their journey to zero carbon by 2030. Let's Go Zero supports schools, colleges and nurseries in cutting their carbon, becoming better places to work, learn and play.

Let’s Go Zero is the campaign for all schools, colleges and nurseries to be zero carbon by 2030. We bring support, guidance and opportunities to thousands of schools – representing more than two million young people.

Let’s Go Zero was launched in 2020. Since 2023, the primary funder has been Green Future Investments Limited (GFIL). GFIL’s enthusiastic commitment has grown Let’s Go Zero to be the biggest, most impactful school sustainability movement in the UK.
