As a council, we recognise our crucial role in reducing emissions from our operations and facilitating the borough’s transition towards net zero. By collaborating across the borough and with local areas, we can make significant emissions reductions and foster real, positive improvements in our local environment. Simultaneously, we must prepare for a changing climate, ensuring the protection of our communities, natural environment, and economy.
