Climate Emergency Committee Action Plan

Welcome to Todmorden Town Council’s Climate Emergency Committee Action Plan

In 2019, Todmorden Town Council declared a Climate Emergency. As part of a response to this, the Climate Emergency Committee devised an Action Plan in order to address climate-related issues on a local level.

On the 18th November 2020, Todmorden Town Council reinforced its earlier Declaration of a Climate Emergency, made in 2019. From this, an amended resolution was proposed for Todmorden Town Council to:

  • Work collectively as a community and with wider stakeholders, towards making Todmorden carbon neutral by the earliest practical date.
  • Continue to call on the Government and Calderdale to provide the resources and powers so that our Town Council can make its contribution to the UK’s Carbon Reduction targets

Todmorden Town Council’s Climate Emergency Committee has developed an action plan that details proposed steps to generate climate action at local level. This includes supporting and promoting the work of local groups/organisations whose projects touch upon climate-related efforts either directly or indirectly. Todmorden Town Council are collaborating with neighbouring councils and organisations to ensure there is a collective approach to tackling climate-related issues on a wider scale.

The key areas of the action plan include:

  • information sharing
  • lobbying/encouraging
  • awareness-raising
  • local project support
