Mr Keith Dowell and Family

York

Keith and his family live on a small holding and see the effects of climate change first hand on their crops and vegetables, especially from the more frequent flooding they have been experiencing. As a first step in their sustainable journey, Keith’s family have insulated and draught proofed their home, installed energy-saving light bulbs and a smart electricity meter and installed a wind turbine. Keith’s family are also so passionate about the environment, they have even started inspiring the community to follow their example – including an energy eco week which they held on their small holding!
