ADEPT responds to climate action plan scorecards
ADEPT has responded to the newly pubished climate action plan scorecards.
“Councils are key to achieving climate goals through providing leadership, supporting business and communities and kickstarting local schemes. Overcoming challenges and developing local opportunities all require meaningful community involvement and councils are happy to be held to account on climate action.
"Each authority, whether predominantly rural, urban or coastal, is unique in terms of geography, size, resource and areas of responsibility and each will have individual priorities and ambitions particularly suited to that location.
"A one-size fits all approach will not best achieve climate targets and we would caution against measuring individual authorities against each other without the context of that local picture."
