We are taking climate change seriously
It poses a major threat to our way of life! We can see the impact outside our window. Extreme temperatures start wildfires on our moors and there are more floods. We must act now if we want to protect the place we call home.
Our plan (draft) sets out what we must do to meet our net zero target by 2038. This three-year plan covers six key themes:
- Use our shared voice for action.
- Support community action.
- Create warm and resilient buildings.
- Grow a green economy.
- Transform transport and how we get around.
- Work with land and nature to protect us in the long-term.
See: Climate Action Plan 2022-25 - In short.
