As a public sector body, the council has an important role in the reduction of greenhouse gases in North Lanarkshire as well as making sure we are climate-ready and acting as sustainably as we can.

The Climate Plan ACT2030 is the first of a series of climate-related documents to be published that encompasses the council’s own climate emergency declaration and its target of net-zero emissions by 2030. In it you will find information on:

• The climate and biodiversity emergency
• North Lanarkshire and its emissions
• Planned policy that will facilitate area emission reductions
• North Lanarkshire Council emissions, its specific targets and carbon management
• Next steps
