Last week the Climate Change Committee (CCC) published its Independent Assessment of UK Climate Risk, exploring what action is needed to move the country along to Net Zero. Our Network Membership Director Christopher Hammond lays out the key take-aways and what the report means for local climate action.

The G7 leaders pledged to ‘build back better’ in the Communique that came out from the Summit, held in Carbis Bay in Cornwall over the weekend 11-13th June. However, the details on how and what this will ultimately deliver, were scant.

Reporting to CDP is an excellent way for local authorities to evaluate and strengthen their climate action, highlighting both the successes and the gaps and helping to build trust. Here Cornwall Council's Dougie Handford explains more from the rural perspective.

The call to arms comes after our new report highlights the work councils across the UK have carried out to help achieve Net Zero.
