Welcome to Moffat CAN!
Moffat CAN is a community-owned company and charity. Our aims are environmental protection, relief of poverty and, especially, carbon reduction. CAN stands for Carbon approaching Neutral. CAN is working to achieve national and international targets on reducing climate change pollution in our rural town in Southern Scotland.
CAN was constituted in February 2009, and spent its first year focussing on a doorstep energy survey, to encourage uptake of insulation measures, and to promote energy efficiency. Click for Details.
For 2010-11, CAN's project is GROW ALLOT. Greatly Reduce/Re-use/Recycle Our Waste and Lead Local Organic Trade, Grow Allot, is a holistic project which sees us launch an organic community garden, allotments, and establish a recycling service, while restoring a church in the process. For details of the three main components of Grow Allot, click on Recycling, Food and Compost.
