Eco Church journey for Ponsonby Baptist
Ponsonby Baptist Church shares their eco-church journey and in particular how they used the 360°Carbon Calculator tool to understand their emissions and communicate them to their congregation. They also discuss how they are strategising ways to reduce and offset their emissions.
Calculating a church’s carbon emissions
St Michael’s Anglican Church in Kelburn recently had a first go at calculating their church’s carbon emissions. We corresponded with Caitlyn Lee, a parishioner at St Michael’s who worked on the carbon calculation for the church about the process.
