Climate Action

Climate Action

We have declared a climate emergency in 2019, and will:

  • ensure our own operations and activities are carbon net zero by 2030
  • do our part to support the district to become carbon net zero

For more details on how we intend to achieve this, see our Climate Action Framework and our Climate Action Plan (November 2024 to April 2026).
