Arts Council England (ACE) publishes its Environmental Annual Report 2024-2025, a publication which presents National Portfolio Organisations (NPO) environmental data and narratives for the period of 1 April 2024 – 31 March 2025

We’re delighted that so many organisations reported their environmental data through the free to access Creative Climate Tools. This rich data has enabled us to create this impactful report with Julie’s Bicycle. Alongside insights on environmental data, the report shares many inspirational stories of action and change – that evidence how organisations are integrating environmental responsibility into every part of their processes, operations, and creative practice. Although the creative and cultural sector accounts for a small proportion of the UK’s total greenhouse gas emissions, its ability to influence audiences and communities, shape public attitudes and drive behaviour change, mean that arts and cultural organisations have a powerful role to play in championing climate action. Arts Council is proud to be supporting the sector through our Environmental Programme.
