Our journey so far
Date | Activity |
---|---|
July 2019 | We declared a Climate Emergency and pledged to become a carbon neutral organisation by 2030. |
March 2020 | We began partnership working across Surrey on climate change challenges. |
September 2020 | We published our Carbon Management and Reduction Plan 2020-2030, and endorsed the strategic ambitions and priorities of Surrey’s Climate Change Strategy. We also established a Climate Change Member Advisory Panel to oversee and steer our work to tackle the Climate Emergency. |
2021 to 2022 | We began implementing carbon reduction and sustainability actions across our own estate and operations, including feasibility studies for solar panel installations on our own estate, switching to a renewable electricity source, working remotely and reducing business travel and staff commute. We also trialled a green corridor verge along Hampton Court Way. |
2022 to 2023 | We’re installing electric vehicle charging points and solar panels in key locations across the borough. |
