- Councils have a unique power to help residents live sustainably & support businesses in adopting low carbon solutions. 🌳 Here's what our 2025 Action Scorecards reveal about council collaboration & engagement: councilclimatescorecards.uk/sections/s6_...
- Good news first! 10 councils are leading the way by banning advertising on flights, SUVs, cruise ships✈️🚗🌱
- 70% of UK councils now publish annual climate action updates - that's up 7% from 2023! 📊🥳 Progress is happening, but there's still work to do... Only 50% of councils have ongoing ways for residents to participate in climate decisions (down 3% from last year) 💬
- Even more concerning: Just 35% of councils lobbied government for additional climate funding and resources - an 8% drop 📣 Our councils need to advocate louder for the support they need.
- Once again, we are looking for 250 volunteers! 🙌 Help us create the 2027 Action Scorecards, marking councils on their climate action. Requirements: - Be passionate about climate action 🌏 - Able to undertake desktop research 💻 - Based in the UK 🏡 Is this you? Apply at: tinyurl.com/scorecardsvo...
