What are we doing?

Our approach is to lead, empower and stimulate action on climate change. The County Council has a dedicated climate change team, but every department is embedding action on climate change to reduce emissions and build resilience.

With our partners, we will demonstrate leadership and include climate change mitigation and resilience in all key policy areas to enable our communities to tackle this issue. ​
