From the Café Sci team: “Unfortunately our speaker tomorrow is ill There will NOT be a talk tomorrow”
The new-look CAPS February 2026 Newsletter has very much taken its look from the excellent Newsletters of the Devon Climate Emergency – ‘excellent’ because they are local and positive and show how reaching out to the wider community is vital.
The Devon Climate Emergency is all about “creating a resilient, net-zero Devon where people and nature thrive!” which sounds like quite a good place to be! And it’s something that the Climate Awareness Partnership Sidmouth aspires to be:
We are a partnership of local authorities, emergency services, businesses and voluntary organisations dedicated to taking action on climate change in Devon. Our mission is to empower Devon to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to net-zero by 2050 at the latest, prepare communities for a warmer world and improve the resilience of Devon’s environment to the effects of climate change.
To really get to know what it’s all about, this coming Tuesday afternoon, at the Café Scientifique: the Devon Climate Emergency Partnership looks at “Creating a resilient, sustainable Devon”:
The next Cafe Scientifique will take place on Tuesday 17th February at 3.00pm
Emily Reed will give a talk entitled “Devon Climate Emergency Partnership: Creating a resilient, sustainable Devon“
Find out about the work of the Devon Climate Emergency partnership, including what its partners are doing and what you can do to help Devon achieve net zero and become more resilient to climate change.
Emily Reed is the Devon Climate Emergency Partnership Manager, based at Devon County Council. She works with a partnership of 30 organisations in Devon to implement a Devon Carbon Plan, for how we reduce emissions to net-zero, and deliver a regional Adaptation Strategy. During her time as the Secretariat the partnership has done extensive public engagement and consultation, including a Devon Climate Assembly.
This event will be live at the Cellar Bar at Kennaway House, Coburg Road EX10 8NG.
