Climate Week Voorne aan Zee

From Monday, November 2, through Saturday, November 7, Voorne aan Zee will be focusing on National Climate Week. During this week, we’ll be paying special attention to climate, sustainability, and practical ways residents can take action themselves to make their lives more sustainable.

We're participating in Climate Week

The Municipality of Voorne aan Zee , in collaboration with partners, organizes various activities to inspire, inform, and engage residents. These include tire-pressure check events, consultation hours with energy coaches at the library, a climate quiz, and activities at schools.

Climate Week shows that small steps can add up to make a big difference. Whether it’s driving more efficiently, saving energy, reusing items, or being more mindful about how we use our belongings: every contribution counts.
