How to Your Council Committed to Halve Carbon Emissions by 2030 (and improve land for nature)
Local authorities manage various aspects of our daily lives, including education, policies, leisure facilities, libraries, road surfacing, community centres, parks/play areas, and more. Most have made commitments to reduce their environmental impacts but some are being very slow. As we contribute to these services through taxes and indeed use them, we inherit an impact. To be net positive, it is important to know what our local authority is doing to make things better for the environment, and where necessary we need to write to a councillor to ask them to do more.
