Climate scientists generally agree that the worst effects of a changing climate would be achieved by limiting global temperature increase to below 1.5°C or well below 2°C compared to pre-industrial levels. Governments and businesses therefore need to reduce GHG emissions to limit increasing temperatures. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/52b5894e-8159-4b4f-b608-9ddf81db210d/SBTi+logo.png News - Emissions reduction targets - what about the products I buy? - So how can I tell what targets companies have committed to? A company can only claim to have a Science Based Target if it has been validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). SBTi consider what a company does and ensures that greenhouse gas reduction targets are consistent with limiting global warming to below 1.5°C. Targets are required to be set for both ‘direct’ (Scope 1&2) and ‘indirect’ (Scope 3) emissions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/a5053116-4839-4450-8ed1-4f815d69a2fd/Tesco+SBT.png News - Emissions reduction targets - what about the products I buy? - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/what-emits-more-carbon-dioxide-a-litre-of-milk-or-a-litre-of-petrol monthly 0.5 2026-01-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/35b2834a-bdb8-4624-802c-2023b7900534/Petrol+and+Milk.png News - What emits more carbon dioxide - a litre of Milk or a litre of Petrol? - This is not a “which is better” article, or a guide to reducing our carbon footprint, rather a reminder that everything we use has a cost in terms of carbon dioxide produced. Nothing is free of that cost, and we should all understand the effect of what we do. My first thought when I was looking into this was “don’t be silly” petrol is a hydrocarbon, it’s oil, a fuel, it must have a miles bigger carbon footprint than milk. Well, let’s see … https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/6919702e-921c-4549-9f63-8d51712171cd/Dairy+Farm+GHG.png News - What emits more carbon dioxide - a litre of Milk or a litre of Petrol? - Now let’s look at milk, which is more complicated … The emissions related to milk production come from enteric fermentation (cows exhale fart and burp methane as a result of enzyme processes in the ruminants digestive system) as well as from production of feed and from manure. The contributions to typical a UK farm’s emissions are shown in the pie chart (Note 3) https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/members-invited-to-provide-content-for-news-section monthly 0.5 2025-12-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1764608579660-6RC6UXFLXX6YRZ6QHEVA/unsplash-image-LaqL8nxiacc.jpg News - Members are invited to provide content for the News Section - Transition Tattenhall members are welcome to share their news articles and opinion pieces via the News section of our website.

The Growing Children project has ignited a real passion for gardening and the outdoors amongst our pupils. Nurtured areas such as wildflower patches have been used in the teaching and learning of plants in science. We have held our very own version of 'Cook Off' using school produce and a real highlight has been the exploration of the giant pumpkins grown in our pumpkin patch - our EYFS were fascinated by the seeds inside! https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/the-climate-crisis-has-arrived-its-time-to-stop-passing-the-buck monthly 0.5 2025-11-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1763833576979-TI670RPFGQ3F0X339UE8/unsplash-image-5sh24a7m0BU.jpg News - The Climate Crisis Has Arrived: It’s Time to Stop Passing the Buck - It’s certainly difficult for young people to envisage a future, when the present already seems catastrophic. How can we move out into our own space when the average UK home costs eight times the income of a family, a deficit which has doubled over the last 30 years? We are told to save energy, but in an overpriced and overcrowded housing market, most of my generation are forced to rent properties with poor insulation and expensive bills. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1764315281805-NC6SDGG4VXET164HFK4Y/unsplash-image-1AaRGN_vyq0.jpg News - The Climate Crisis Has Arrived: It’s Time to Stop Passing the Buck - We are told to eat sustainably, or buy an electric car, but these are almost hysterically unaffordable for most under 30. All the while, we are gaslit into believing that we are exaggerating the severity of the problem. The wildly different experiences of our generation have opened up a chasm of misunderstanding with the ones who had the luxury of delay. Being green is now a financial choice, priced into an economy awash with vast wealth inequalities. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/2025-agm monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/repair-cafe-chair monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762702416028-BC8TY9MZ5UUBH98V05JC/AncestralChair4.png News - Repair Cafe: Children’s Ancestral Chair https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762702416008-GI2UT8SUA9Z1K7WG1WFP/AncestralChair3.png News - Repair Cafe: Children’s Ancestral Chair https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1763399398700-AOTSXXQE21GF4R3EXG4V/AncestralChair5.png News - Repair Cafe: Children’s Ancestral Chair https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/accessible-bus-service monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/ec2239ad-a441-4c57-9afd-137f93d79482/AccessibleBusService2.png News - Accessible Bus Service - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/mini-meadows-review monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762763843865-M2TQ7OVQNECA9UA0CVAZ/Minimeadows1.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762763842663-7MKIHDYXLN7IX0MXVKP6/Minimeadows2.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762763840971-VDOTXEX68FMZW4WA2WEM/Minimeadows5.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762765021851-1AVHI7BJD50J26OV0AIH/Minimeadows5.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762764864546-YJLKQ4HOKH68QYY10T3U/Minimeadows6a.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762763839758-B4ZA97RFRWKUOH1PIJS6/Minimeadows6.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762763839561-1ML35GZINW31646Z37S8/Minimeadows7.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762763838396-ME06IDCX69VHCJED1OA8/Minimeadows8.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1762765084679-3EA2727ON7OOK9HDPO9R/Minimeadows9.png News - Mini-Meadows: A Review https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/2024-agm monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/244c10d9-0c1d-4c36-80b3-34dd2ef6c2d7/2024AGM.png News - 2024 AGM - Make it stand out 2024 AGM https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/cwac-household-waste-recycling-centre-consultation monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1763108350258-NXM2CKIP8Z44QF2LVEGZ/Waste+Consultation.png News - CWAC Household Waste Recycling Centre Consultation - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/4dd694e5-0a9b-439d-9c5d-bec4cdf83843/Waste+Consultation+Doc.png News - CWAC Household Waste Recycling Centre Consultation - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/repair-cafe-sunday-24th-march monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/566336fb-e5d4-45e2-959a-15909247d326/Reapir+Cafe+24+March.png News - Repair Cafe: Sunday 24th March - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/tattenhall-free-pantry monthly 0.5 2025-11-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/18960b31-d606-453f-81dd-ca1a95a3adb7/donna-spearman-Kml12zn10wI-unsplash-scaled-e1700052688800-253x300.jpg News - Tattenhall Free Pantry - The consequences of Covid and the economic downturn have affected our community as with all others. Food and energy poverty are now effecting many households including in Tattenhall. One way support has been provided across the country is through Food Banks. In Tattenhall Trussell, in collaboration with Tattenhall Park Primary School and St Alban’s Church, have been making emergency food boxes available to families of children attending the school. This has been available throughout the term times and, to some degree, during school holidays as well. However, there is a gap in this provision for those individuals or families not in contact with the school and Transition Tattenhall is hoping to work with others to tackle this problem. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/growing-children monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1763111446767-7ZUF1UCUHNQWW6Q8LPRM/Growing3.png News - Growing Children https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/1763111446819-STVL18LQB013R2WS3KX6/Growing2.png News - Growing Children https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/repair-cafe-monks-story monthly 0.5 2025-11-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/49faa6e0-1ce2-4414-b84f-51d2100cb1ff/Monk+2.png News - Repair Cafe: Monks’ Story - Monks first met Allan over a cup of PG Tips in Tesco, Chester 22 years ago and they became firm friends. Monks and Allan have travelled to many places in the UK over the years including The Bank of England and The Royal Albert Hall. Allan decided that Monks needed sprucing up so gave him a wash but it didn’t go well and Monks was left with loose stitching and had to be repaired at The Teddy Bear Shop.

Managing our lives and supporting our families just looks more difficult.

We spent much of our early days trying to get to know people in our town, those who are seen to be in power and those who feel they have little. To get some idea of what people thought about environmental issues and how we might be part of communicating it better. Transition is very much a bottom up thing with ordinary people leading the way. People in power can get on board if they want to but they aren’t necessary to the success, we will do it without you is the attitude. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/f64afe2b-fcc3-4f7c-92df-61de7e0181a2/Beth+Barlow+Art+2.png News - Transition and Extinction Rebellion - Essential Bedfellows? - I have often wondered if personal changes lead naturally to speaking to power. People start making all sorts of changes to live a greener life they start to look around and think what’s next and who is helping or hindering me? If things like legislation are making our personal green aspirations difficult we may well have to get activated and speak to power and we will have very clear and specific demands and case study. This has happened in my life but I wonder if it happens in others? The converse might be true and if we take the Extinction Rebellion path first our presence at acts of rebellion feed into everything we do personally. Both to try to avoid the badge of hypocrite, probably unavoidable, but also because it feels natural. When we started our own Transition group 8 years ago I was totally convinced that there was time for a slow and voluntary transition to more life sensitive systems, ones which would support community and society as much as other nature. A change which would be about choice rather than forced or inevitable consequences. Move on 8 years and little action from big power has moved in the right direction and now we find ourselves on the edge. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/650a7e9f-a7d5-4ae8-a9cb-5334b722b75b/Beth+Barlow+Art+3.png News - Transition and Extinction Rebellion - Essential Bedfellows? - Do I have anything to add to a particular protest or is it just a nice day out for me? Do I think I have to put my energy into bringing the populace along or work on big change from the top? What are my skills and how might they be put to most use? Who are the people who give me things like comfort in bad times, energy and a sense of purpose? How can we work together? And a big one at the moment … Can we talk about this, feel the grief it brings up but not be frozen into non action?

The Engagement Day was designed as an interactive day, with as much community participation as possible, to gather the thoughts and ideas of local residents by essentially running a visioning exercise to get an idea of aspects of the village that people like, any aspects they are less keen on, and things they would like to see in the village in the future. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/f8c2f077-2c10-470a-9bbb-04e3db1d277d/Engagement+Day.png News - Our Activities to Date - Engagement Day In the afternoon, participants chose their favourite of these topic areas and came up, with ideas for projects that could address them. At the end of the day there was an opportunity to see all the project ideas from each of the topic groups and participants could vote on those they felt were particularly important. The event wound down at 3pm and, after a very collaborative day, we had generated a starter list of projects to begin moving us forward to the next phase of Transition Tattenhall. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/f83dd27e-fb01-4d04-95e5-839407e06d92/Thoughts+and+Ideas.png News - Our Activities to Date - Thoughts and ideas captured in the morning session To disseminate the information generated from the Engagement Day we shared a review of the day, as well as the project ideas generated, on our website, on Tattenhall.org and in the Parish Newsletter. We also held further Roadshow drop-in events at several of the village markets, as well as on the High Street, to share information about Transition, the work of Transition Tattenhall to date, and the project ideas generated at the Engagement Day. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/cop26-challenge monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/0f046325-d5b7-4f55-9746-d7fc0de1e7d0/COP26.png News - COP26 Challenge - During the COP26 Conference we have been sharing our COP26 Challenge over on the Tattenhall.org website to see if we could challenge the readers to make little changes in their lives to reduce their carbon footprint We shared the WWF’s Carbon Footprint Calculator as a quick and easy way to calculate your carbon footprint and see where there might be scope for improvement. https://www.transitiontattenhall.co.uk/news/project-ideas monthly 0.5 2025-11-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/69046ec06bb48c2b531c050a/f83dd27e-fb01-4d04-95e5-839407e06d92/Thoughts+and+Ideas.png News - Project Ideas - Our Engagement Day on 10th October generated lots of great ideas and discussion about the Tattenhall that people wanted to see in the future.
