Unlocking the Power of Local Authorities for a Net Zero Future

Local Authorities, Municipalities, and Public Bodies are at the heart of the UK’s economic, political, and social landscape. Together, they interact with every sector of society—impacting an economy worth £2 trillion, a population of 70 million, six million businesses, and 18,000 decision-makers shaping the future.

As the most influential force for change in the UK, Local Authorities have the power to drive rapid transformation. They can take direct action through their spending, enforce change through regulations, and mobilize residents and businesses within their constituencies.

A well-crafted and properly resourced Climate Statutory Duty could be the key to fast-tracking the UK’s journey to Net Zero. By embedding sustainability into governance, we can achieve critical environmental targets efficiently, effectively, and with minimal financial burden on taxpayers.
