Jannette O’Brien – Climate Action Coordinator with Carlow County Council wants to talk about Climate Action Week Carlow. They are hosting their 3rd Climate action Week in Carlow from 3-12th October and its growing every year. This year they have 40 events taking place in that short timeframe.

We have circa 30 free events and 10 private or events that have a small charge.  From energy-saving advice and biodiversity projects to youth workshops, film screenings, community gardening and sustainable living demonstrations, Carlow Climate Action Week 2026 will showcase how local people, organisations and businesses are working together to create a more sustainable future for County Carlow.  Organised by Carlow County Council, Carlow Climate Action Week takes place from 3–12 October 2026, bringing together over 40 activities and events across the county. The programme includes practical workshops, expert talks, family-friendly activities, community initiatives, business events, nature-based projects and hands-on demonstrations designed to make climate action accessible, relevant and achievable for everyone. One of the strongest themes running through this year’s programme is collaboration.
