Working together to make Nottingham a carbon-neutral city

green festival

Our work to tackle the climate crisis isn?t just about reducing Nottingham?s carbon footprint. Taking climate action also brings a host of other benefits, including reducing household bills, making our air cleaner, and improving the health outcomes of our residents.

As the lead for Carbon Neutral Nottingham 2028, I recently took part in Carbon Literacy training. Attending this daylong session alongside some of my colleagues from the council?s Executive Board allowed me time to explore solutions to climate issues that we as a city will be facing in the future. Our involvement in this excellent training builds on our recent achievement of being recognised as the first Carbon Literate council in Nottinghamshire [ [link removed] ].

I am proud that Nottingham is at the forefront of tackling the climate crisis. We have an ambition to become the first carbon-neutral city in the UK, and Nottingham is listed in the top 122 cities in the world for climate action [ [link removed] ].? But there is much more work to be done.

During the training I had opportunity to discuss with my fellow councillors the power of having conversations about the climate crisis. This is why I will be attending the 30th Nottingham Green Festival [ [link removed] ]on Sunday at the Arboretum. I will be joined by colleagues from the Council?s Carbon Neutral Policy team to talk to visitors about the scale of the challenge and how we can all get involved to help Nottingham become a carbon-neutral city.

Join us at the Arboretum between noon and 6pm at the Green Festival on Sunday to visit more than 100 stalls and take part in family-friendly activities.
