Tackling climate change
Our ambition is for a Greener Gloucestershire; where our way of living today is considerate of future generations and the natural environment.
We will:
Limit the effects of global warming and protect our natural environment by:
✔️ Delivering a Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan that reduces the council’s emissions to net zero by 2030 and helps reduce Gloucestershire’s emissions to net zero by 2045, with a net countywide carbon reduction ambition of 80% by 2030.
✔️ Supporting communities and businesses to do their bit, including investing in 1000 charge points to help people make the switch to electric vehicles and to increase Gloucestershire’s woodlands and biodiversity.
✔️ Leading by example, putting climate change at the heart of our decisions and working in partnership across Gloucestershire’s public sector to make the greatest impact.
