Each of the 10 local authorities within Greater Manchester has set challenging local targets to reduce natural resource use, prepare for climate change and reduce the carbon footprint within its boundaries.
Although risk levels from climate change impacts such as flooding and wildfires vary, the breakdown of each borough's carbon footprint are broadly the same. Wherever you reside in Greater Manchester roughly a third of your carbon footprint comes from transport, a third from businesses and public sector and a third from households. We are all therefore responsible for taking action to reduce our region's carbon footprint.
This section outlines some of our existing and planned activities which will contribute to a city region that is greener, healthier and more sustainable.
