Calderdale’s Climate Action Plan has launched!

The Plan sets out the action that needs to be taken in Calderdale before 2026 to set us on our path to a brighter future.

It’s been developed in partnership with local people and organisations and focuses on the key actions that we can all take now to tackle climate change.

Climate change poses a major threat to our way of life in Calderdale. We can see the impact outside of our window – extreme temperatures are more frequent, and flooding is on the rise.

We really must act now if we want to protect the place we call home.

Lots of brilliant work is already underway to tackle climate change, but we must go further and faster if we’re to meet Calderdale’s target of net zero emissions by 2038. The Climate Action Plan will make sure that happens!

The Climate Action Plan sets out how we can all work together to build a better, greener, and more resilient Calderdale. The good news is that acting now won’t just help to avoid a climate disaster – it will also make life better for us and our families.

Calderdale is already a fantastic place to live, work and visit – but we want to make sure that it stays that way for generations to come!

Now we need your help!

The Climate Action Plan shares some ideas on actions you can take to help tackle climate change and meet our net zero target by 2038.

We want as many people as possible to be able to read, watch or listen to Calderdale’s Climate Action Plan. Different versions of the Climate Action Plan have been produced to meet different needs – online you can find audio versions of the plan in English, Polish, Czech, Punjabi and Urdu.  Visit calderdale.gov.uk/ClimateActionPlan
