Introduction
Summary:
This report sets out the progress against delivery of Manchester City Council’s Climate Change Action Plan (CCAP) 2020-25.
- All activity described in this report relates to the period April to December 2020.
Emissions vs Budgets
A conservative estimate of total emissions for the full year (April 2020 to March 2021) is 28,000 tonnes of CO2. This assumes that our emissions for October 2020 to March 2021 will be the same as those for the same period in the previous year. As such, we fully expect the Council to stay below this year's carbon emissions budget of 31,080 tonnes of CO2.
In addition to the targets for 2020-25 set out in the Climate Change Action Plan, we have a target to be zero carbon by 2038.
