Climate Action for Associations

As former members of Climate Action for Associations (CAFA), the CEA has been invited to rejoin the group to support the sustainability agenda across professional bodies and trade associations. 

CAFA acknowledges that as a trade association, we are in a unique position to assist our members in achieving decarbonisation goals outlined in our Manifesto. 

Initially, we will focus internally on the CEA to identify ways to reduce our carbon footprint. Since all staff and contractors work remotely, this presents an unusal challenge. However, we believe there are always opportunities to improve practices related to recycling, car sharing, waste reduction and others. 

Membership of CAFA also ensures that our members are kept informed of important legislative changes that may impact them, such as new recycling rules to be implemented in 2025.

Decarbonisation is a significant focus for our sector, and we believe it is essential for the CEA to lead by example and demonstrate best practices, as your trade association.

We are excited about the opportunity to collaborate with CAFA in the months ahead.
