Everyone has a responsibility to act on climate change and we need to do all we can at a local level to become more environmentally sustainable. We will lead by facilitating positive change to support our borough to reduce its carbon footprint.
Sustainable transport systems, including bike lanes and walking paths, as well as improved public transit routes, are essential. New housing developments must have reduced carbon emissions, high energy efficiency standards, electric vehicle charging stations, and renewable energy sources. We can also protect and create new habitats to increase biodiversity by using land more sustainably.
