What is the council doing to reduce carbon?
Climate change is becoming increasingly prominent in all
aspects of political life. Media coverage is helping to raise
awareness and instigate action at a local and global level.
Everyone in Peterborough has a part to play in reducing the impact
of climate change, but the council also acknowledges that it must
put its own house in order whilst asking others to do the
same. Chief Executive of Peterborough City Council, Gillian
Beasley, has produced a film called “Gillian’s Footprint
Counts – what about yours?” which illustrates the environmental
impact of her every day actions and how simple changes can have a
huge impact on our environment.
The following pages outline our carbon reporting
requirements and plan of action for reducing C02 emissions across
