The GreenPlan uses behavioural change strategies to tackle Climate Change. Neil McCabe CEO & Founder of The GreenPlan has won many Global Awards as a Social Entrepreneur and advocate for Climate Change Quick Introduction The GreenPlan started in 2008 in Kilbarrack

Fire Station - Dublin - to help solve a problem Morale needed to improve - 50% of the crew had moved to a new Fire Station - The remaining 50% were no longer motivated Quick Introduction High Energy Usage and High Carbon Emissions - This was a 40 year old building burning a lot of Fossil Fuel Fire fighters need to be able to rely on each

other and we are all responsible for our environmental impact - The GreenPlan Story starts with batteries - Reaction & Response Neil had to do something to build motivation I am a Doer and he started recycling batteries! One month later Neil had a full box of used

batteries collected So he moved on to recycling other waste, on the Firefighters own time, in their own vehicles rather then landfill this saved money and waste and built a sense of Reaction & Response Fire Fighters were becoming stakeholders and took on a shared responsibility for their actions and the environmental impacts that we all create

Soon Neil had become the Go To person and his ideas became known as The GreenPlan The solution to the problem The GreenPlan would motivate the Crew , This is the original cover to The GreenPlan 2008 Change making a 150 organisation By the end of 2008 Neil had raised 14,000

directly from the Fire Crews To build and install Europe's first Thermodynamic Solar Collectors in Dublin This technology was and still is very exciting because it uses something that Ireland has a lot of Wind and Rain. It also reduced costs by 6,000 Change Change making making

In only one year the Fire Fighters had reduced the running costs by 10,000 with no help from management, just behavioural change. This reduced tons of Carbon Emissions another serious problem The energy savings were reinvested in projects for social good Kilbarrack Fire Station Worlds
