“Staffordshire County Council has built on its successes and continued to make significant progress with climate change action, which is highlighted in the annual report.
The Council has continued in the right direction to achieve our net zero target by 2050. We are on a mission to make Staffordshire Sustainable, and this is our second report since declaring the climate change emergency allowing us to celebrate our achievements and highlight our plans for the coming years.
We still have much to do and with the current energy and economic challenges, the road ahead will be tough. We are determined to build on our solid foundations built over the past few years to realise future success to mitigate and adapt to climate change.”
Simon Tagg, Cabinet Member Environment, Infrastructure and Climate Change |

Decision – (a) That the Council’s Climate Change 2022 Annual Report, which records the positive progress that has been made on the Council’s target to become net carbon zero by 2050, be noted.
(b) That the Climate Change Action Plan revision 2, November 2022, which lists the Council’s key climate change mitigating actions over the next three years, be approved.
