Ecoresponsibility

With our aim to steer the nation­al dia­logue on ecore­spon­si­bil­i­ty and sus­tain­able devel­op­ment, you will find use­ful tools in the ongo­ing need to be informed as a net­work of dance com­mu­ni­ties unit­ed across Tur­tle Island.

• The Cre­ative Green Tools are a free set of unique car­bon cal­cu­la­tors devel­oped by Julie’s Bicy­cle specif­i­cal­ly for the cre­ative indus­tries. They’re used by over 5,000 organ­i­sa­tions across 50 dif­fer­ent coun­tries to under­stand the envi­ron­men­tal impacts of cul­tur­al build­ings, offices, out­door events, tours and pro­duc­tions.
• Start Mea­sur­ing And Report­ing Your Car­bon Emis­sions with Car­bon Foot­print.
• Plan­e­tair lets you quan­ti­fy green­house gas emis­sions, iden­ti­fy reduc­tion oppor­tu­ni­ties and off­set cli­mate impact through car­bon cred­its.
• ACT — Artist Cit­i­zens on Tour pro­motes eco-friend­ly prac­tices in show-busi­ness.
• SCALE is a net­work of artists, cul­tur­al prac­ti­tion­ers, and arts organ­i­sa­tions com­mit­ted to address­ing the cli­mate emer­gency and envi­ron­men­tal injus­tice. We coor­di­nate and facil­i­tate the mobi­liza­tion of art and cul­ture across Tur­tle Island to cre­ate a just and regen­er­a­tive world.
• The Decolo­nial Toolk­it for Cli­mate Artists is a straight­for­ward doc­u­ment that address­es the inter­sec­tion of colo­nial­ism, cli­mate change and the arts. More specif­i­cal­ly, the Toolk­it aims to help artists con­sid­er their own cul­tur­al con­di­tion­ing, con­front the insep­a­ra­bil­i­ty of colo­nial­ism and cli­mate change, and devel­op a decolo­nial foun­da­tion for both the cli­mate art field, and the arts sec­tor more broad­ly.
• Cli­mate Jus­tice — Unit­ed Nations Por­tal. «The impacts of cli­mate change will not be borne equal­ly or fair­ly, between rich and poor, women and men, and old­er and younger gen­er­a­tions. Con­se­quent­ly, there has been a grow­ing focus on cli­mate jus­tice, which looks at the cli­mate cri­sis through a human rights lens and on the belief that by work­ing togeth­er we can cre­ate a bet­ter future for present and future gen­er­a­tions.»
• In depth Q&A, What is Cli­mate Jus­tice by Car­bon Brief
• The glob­al cli­mate jus­tice move­ment is actu­al­ly a move­ment of many movements—a con­tin­u­ous­ly grow­ing and chang­ing dis­trib­uted transna­tion­al net­work of indi­vid­u­als and groups act­ing, each in their own way, to achieve their vision of a sci­en­tif­i­cal­ly sound and social­ly just response to glob­al warm­ing and cli­mate change.
• Envi­ron­men­tal Impacts of Dig­i­tal Tech­nol­o­gy 5 year trends and 5g gov­er­nance by The Shift Project, a French think tank advo­cat­ing the shift to a post-car­bon econ­o­my. As a non-prof­it organ­i­sa­tion com­mit­ted to serv­ing the gen­er­al inter­est through sci­en­tif­ic objec­tiv­i­ty, we are ded­i­cat­ed to inform­ing and influ­enc­ing the debate on ener­gy tran­si­tion in Europe.
