Help Shape London's Climate Emergency Action Plan
Official title: Climate Emergency Action Plan
London declared a climate emergency and created a plan to reach net-zero emissions by 2050. The city wants ongoing feedback on how to reduce greenhouse gases, prepare for extreme weather, and make the transition fair for everyone. You can comment on the plan, review progress reports, and share ideas for local climate action.
Why This Matters
Live in London? This affects your home, your commute, and your energy bills. Extreme weather is getting worse—flooding, heat waves, ice storms. The city's plan touches everything from building codes to transit to tree planting. Your input shapes how London spends climate dollars and which neighbourhoods get help first.
What Could Change
London aims for net-zero emissions by 2050. That means stricter building standards, more transit and cycling infrastructure, and changes to waste collection. A new Climate Change Adaptation Framework is coming in 2025 to address flooding and extreme heat. The city's modelling shows climate action could save Londoners money overall.
Key Issues
- How should London reduce community greenhouse gas emissions to reach net-zero by 2050?
- How can London improve resilience to climate change impacts like flooding and extreme heat?
- How do we ensure the climate transition is fair and brings everyone along?
- What should be included in the upcoming Climate Change Adaptation Framework?
