London Climate Action Week is now less than a week away, and the 7th edition is set to break all records — with over 700 events. It’s a powerful signal that climate action in London is not just alive — it’s expanding, despite global headwinds.
We’ve been digging through the packed programme and this edition is clearly about opening up the climate conversation — welcoming new sectors, industries, and communities that weren’t as involved in previous years. (Check out our latest article on 10 things to know ahead of LCAW.)
While the official LCAW website offers a helpful search tool by date, theme, format, or hub, we’ve created our own curated list — shaped by what matters most to The Green Londoner: community, inclusion, and hands-on engagement.
📌 Note: Some events may still being added to the official website — so keep an eye on it over the coming days. And don’t forget: 21 June is Show Your Stripes Day! Wear your climate stripes proudly — and creatively — with your friends, family, or kids.
