Draft Climate Change Policy

About the project

Council is required to regularly review and revise its Climate Change Policy to ensure it remains consistent with the latest climate science and best practice climate policy frameworks.

The updated Climate Change Policy incorporates:

a revised Policy Statement, updated with current climate findings
a range of expanded policy principles
updated policy objectives, including interim emissions targets and a 100% electrification target for Council facilities.

Once adopted, the Climate Change Policy will inform a subsequent review and update of Council’s Net Zero Strategy.
