#itshappening: real signs of a brighter future

Did you know that the UK broke its own wind power record last month – twice!

You don't have to look far for bad news on climate change, but there are also signs of progress all around us. Renewables are on the rise, community projects are breaking through, and scientific advances are boosting the efficiency of everything from lorries to lightbulbs. Slowly but surely, it's happening

We think this is a story worth telling, and with your help we're going to give it a shot. So today I'd like to introduce you to our newest project: #itshappening.

#itshappening is all about images; visual examples of the good stuff that's going on right now. Large or small, local or global – if it's cutting carbon, it's in! Can you help us show how #itshappening in your world?
