On holiday in the Lake District: "my son and I have scrambled up Side Pike and are feeling very impressed with ourselves."
After making some pretty drastic changes in our first 10:10 year, I thought our 12% saving would be hard to beat in year two.
But I needn't have worried – in 2011 we managed to bring our footprint down by 19%!
It’s hard to believe, but it’s only four months since the newest addition to the 10:10 family - Solar Schools - stepped gingerly out into the sun.
For a (super cute) reminder of what it’s all about, watch the video below!
We’re thrilled to say that our schools have already raised over £70,000 to become cleaner, greener places for pupils to learn. Against the backdrop of a recession and a turbulent time in the solar industry, we think that’s pretty incredible!
It's been another amazing year for the 10:10 community, and we wanted to do something a bit special to celebrate everything we've achieved together.
So we've put together a bumper 2011 roundup page, featuring all the highlights of the last 12 months.

The Centre for Sustainable Healthcare was lucky enough to be awarded funding at 10:10's Pitch Pledge Party event back in October. We got the money for our work in kidney units where we retrofit heat exchangers on inefficient dialysis machines. It's all pretty technical but each upgraded unit uses a hefty 20% less energy.
