This website is run by ETC, Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (“DESNZ”) and Third Generation Environmentalism (“E3G”). It was built and designed by Design102. We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. For example, that means you should be able to:

- navigate most of the website using a keyboard or speech recognition software
- listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver).
We’ve also made the website text as simple as possible to understand.
