Porthmadog Sailing Club is committed to minimising the impact of its activities on the environment. This Policy Statement sets out how we will work towards achieving our environmental objectives.
We will meet the environmental legislation that relates to the operation of the clubhouse and boat park, and where possible identify opportunities to adopt best practice over and above the minimum legislative requirements.
We will ensure that club safety boats are fuelled safely and responsibly to avoid spillages and pollution. Safety boat drivers will be trained in refuelling good practice.
We will minimise the use of electricity in all of our activities. For example; turning off lights, replacing old light bulbs with energy efficient models.
We will minimise the use of water in all of our activities. For example; fitting hoses with automatic trigger nozzles and turning off taps when not in use.
We will minimise the creation of waste. For example; we will only print and photocopy if absolutely essential and then print double-sided.
Where possible, we will use email rather than printed materials to communicate and promote our activities.
We will recycle as much waste as possible by providing adequate clearly labelled bins and increasing our waste and recycling bins and/or collections during busy events.
We will promote relevant local environmental information to our members such as the location of voluntary no anchor zones, sensitive habitats/species.
We will publicise our environmental commitment and promote sustainability amongst our members and visitors on our website and club notice boards.
