📻 Community Radio in Action

As a local station, we believe real change starts close to home.
Our team is working to reduce our own carbon footprint — from greener broadcasting to sustainable events — and sharing what we learn along the way.

💡 Take Action

Here are some small steps with a big impact:

• Save energy: switch to LED bulbs and unplug devices.

• Travel smart: walk, cycle, share or go electric.

• Eat greener: cut food waste, choose seasonal and local produce.

• Reduce plastic: refill, reuse, recycle.

• Speak up: share your ideas on-air or online.
