Back by popular demand for CARICOM Energy Month (CEM) 2025 is No Iron Day. Commencing 7 November 2025, and continuing every Friday in November (14, 21, and 28), people across the Region are encouraged to wear clothing that has not been ironed to support energy conservation and climate action.
This fun and practical campaign challenges individuals to be brave enough to skip using irons and steamers. Why does this matter? Ironing requires electrical energy, much of which is generated from fossil fuel–based power grids. By not ironing, you will help reduce electricity usage and associated carbon emissions, proving that even small changes in our daily routines can make a big difference.
Over the past two years, No Iron Day has grown in popularity, with increasing participation and enthusiasm across CARICOM Member States. The initiative continues to demonstrate how simple, intentional actions can collectively lower energy consumption, reduce costs, and support climate resilience in our Region.
Join us this Friday for the first leg of the campaign. Ignore the iron and rock your wrinkle-ready outfit with pride!
Use the hashtag #NoIronDay to share your photos and fit of the day and tag @CARICOMorg to be featured in the highlights of the regional movement for energy conservation and sustainable living.
