Welcome to Herefordshire Libraries

Climate change: fact or fiction?

If you are undecided, this film may help you make up your mind. The Age of Stupid  stars Pete Postlethwaite as a man living alone in the devastated world of 2055, looking at old footage of seven real people from now and asking: why didn't we stop climate change when we had the chance?

"Bold, supremely provocative and hugely important...a cry from the heart as much as a roar for necessary change"
The Daily Telegraph

This DVD is available to borrow from Herefordshire libraries, free of charge, as part of Herefordshire Council's commitment to reducing our impact on climate change.

Check your electricity use and save money

Free energy monitors and smart plugs are now available to borrow from all Herefordshire Libraries including the Mobile Library Service. An energy monitor will enable you see how much energy your household appliances are using and costing in real energy terms and the cost to your pocket and the environment. There are two types available – a sophisticated monitor that tells you the whole usage in your house and a smart plug which measures just one electrical appliance.
