Climate change strategy
We are currently working towards finalising a climate change strategy.
Our objective
To be carbon neutral by 2050
We will achieve this through 4 strategic principles:
Working with partners
Preserving the climate beneficial elements of the COVID-19 pandemic
Working with schools and young people
Preserving the natural environment sustainably in line with the Bracknell Forest Local Plan
Action plan
Our action plan has 2 main strands:
Reduce carbon emissions that are under the council's control
Influence and lead community action against climate change
Currently, we have:
- 42 live projects
- 5 of these projects reflect emissions that the council has direct control over
- 18 of these projects reflect emissions that we can influence within the borough
- 19 of these projects are a combination of direct control and influence
We are planning to publish our climate change strategy early next year (2021) and then will present progress reports on a yearly basis.
