Report by the Chief Operating Officer and the Director of Communities, Economy and Transport

19.1     The Cabinet considered a report by the Director of Communities, Economy and Transport and Chief Operating Officer.

19.1     It was RESOLVED to note the progress report.

Reason
19.2     The Council has recognised the severity of the climate crisis by declaring a climate emergency, setting a clear science-based target and committing an additional £9.9m of funding to cutting corporate carbon emissions. The scale of the Council’s functions and the diversity of providers the Council works with makes this a complex and substantial task. Significant work has already been undertaken to reduce emissions and will continue to be undertaken. This progress report sets out what has been achieved to date.
