Episode Details

In this episode, we sit down with Huw Russell, a Director in the Climate team at Local Partnerships LLP, and Liz Vango, Sustainability and Climate Change Officer at Hart District Council, to explore the pivotal role of local councils in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We'll discuss how councils, including Hart District Council, are leveraging free tools, jointly delivered to you by the Local Government Association and Local Partnerships. You can find the tools on the Local Partnerships website to identify and target sources of emissions. The tools are free thanks to funding from the Local Government Association and the Crown Commercial Service. This proactive approach helps councils respond effectively to their Climate Emergency declarations and move closer to their net zero targets. Join us as we delve into the strategies, successes, and challenges faced by local councils in the fight against climate change.
