Climate Action in our Community

Why Local Climate Action Matters
Galway County Council supports communities of all sizes in taking meaningful climate action. Local efforts such as cutting emissions, using renewable energy, and promoting sustainability are vital for a healthier planet.

Leading the Way Locally
Communities across County Galway are:

  • Adapting to climate change
  • Protecting natural resources
  • Fostering eco-friendly habits

From community gardens and biodiversity projects to energy-saving initiatives and sustainable transport, local groups and individuals are driving real change.

Grassroots action empowers people and inspires wider change - ensuring a greener, more resilient Galway for future generations. Read below on some of the climate initiatives that have been taking place across communities throughout County Galway.
