St Mary’s Guildhall, Coventry
Over six years since local authorities first declared Climate Emergency motions and their net zero targets, we track their progress and share best practice from the trailblazers across our region while providing an interactive opportunity to come together to discuss the opportunities and challenges ahead in the journey to net zero, from budgetary pressures to political changes.
As the leading local authority network for frontline services, this is also a chance to look at how statutory services from waste and recycling, to energy and transport, are vital for councils in reaching net zero while taking communities and colleagues alike with them on the journey, and how to avoid ‘carbon tunnel vision’.
Presentations:
Tackling climate change in Coventry - Cllr Jim O'Boyle and Margot James
Destination decarbonisation: Derby - Andy Hills, Climate Change Group Manager, Derby City Council
