Green Map sessions for the New Year!
A new Green Map Digital Photography course is starting on Wednesday the 4th of February in Penlan Library, from 1pm until 3pm. If you would like to learn more about your camera and the basics of digital photography then come along and sign up for this FREE four week course. We will be working in the library using their computers as well as getting out and about using our cameras to photograph the local area. The course will cover how to use your camera and the different shooting modes it has, how to transfer your photos to a pc and then how to under take basic editing to improve them. The photos taken will be used as part of the next Green Map of the Penderry area. Email dai@environmentcentre.org.uk to book a place or see one of the library staff. |
How to be greener in 2015
Now that we've started a new year, why not make an effort to live a little more sustainably? You'll be surprised how easy some of the ideas are. We've organised them into 9 different categories and here is the first one- Buying less.
We'll keep adding them throughout the year, probably each month, so keep popping back to the site to see what's next.

Digital Streams Photo Exhibition in Civic Centre NOW
|
This project was all about exploring the River Tawe. We took the group out on four trips to photograph various locations on the river with a final day learning to use Photoshop to edit them. The project offered a fun and friendly way to learn about digital photography, to get outdoors and to find out about how the river affects us and how we affect it. You can view the stunning photos taken by the group in an exhibition currently up in the foyer area of the Civic Centre on Oystermouth Road. It will be there until March during regular opening hours. If you do pop along - get in touch to tell us what you thought of it and if you want to be involved in any future courses. Email dai@environmentcentre.org.uk for more information click here. |

The Swansea Sustainability Trail
The Sustainability Trail brings together a collection of local projects and organisations to give practical examples of how we can look after our world and the resources it provides. Each project is happy to welcome visitors (some by prior arrangement only) and provide tours of their site to show how they are contributing to a more sustainable world.
Please get in touch if your group would like to visit a site as we can facilitate this for you.
