Priority seven: Raising awareness and involvement

Outcome

Empowered local communities that create an environmentally sustainable future.

What this means

Everyone needs to play their part in tackling climate change and protecting the environment. We will enable local people to ‘do their bit’ by providing up to date information, advice and support that will encourage them to live greener lifestyles.

Key objectives

• Raise awareness and promote a change in behaviour among residents, businesses and other key partners.
• Deliver environmental awareness and educational activities for children and young people.
• Learn, develop and share best practice in the delivery of ‘green’ council services.
