APSE Northern Forum
About the event
This meeting is an ideal opportunity for officers, elected members and local authority partners and trade unions to hear how after declaring climate emergencies many local authorities are now having to deliver the targets they have set themselves: to reduce their own carbon emissions, green their services and help to change behaviours to help create more sustainable lifestyles within their areas.
The impacts of climate change include many things such as reducing air quality, increased flooding, extreme weather conditions, loss of biodiversity, increasing sea levels and so the list goes on.
World leaders are grappling with the actions and the speed at which they need to implement these actions. Dates of between 2030 and 2050 are being quoted for local authorities to meet the climate emergency targets, whether these be achievable, the targets need to be aimed for and this seminar will look at how councils are working towards these timelines.
