06 Climate Action Plan - Annual Review 2022/23

Report of the Director of Environment and Sustainability.

Camden Council declared a climate emergency in 2019 and committed to do all that it could to help tackle the climate crisis. The Climate Action Plan 2020-2025 was developed to set a vision for climate action across the borough.

The Climate Action Plan committed to an annual review to share progress on the actions completed and include new actions developed in response to completed feasibility work or new regional or national policy.

The report provides a summary of the 2022/23 annual review (the 3rd Annual Review), which shows that 98% of all Climate Action Plan actions have either been completed or are in delivery. An update on greenhouse gas emission reductions has also been provided, showing that borough wide CO2 emissions have fallen by 45% since 2005, while emissions from our own estate and operations are 59% lower since 2010. The report also highlights key progress updates on all actions and explores examples of climate action taking place in the community and among the Council’s own operations.

Camden Transport Strategy Annual Update 2023
Report of the Director of Environment and Sustainability.

The Camden Transport Strategy (CTS) was adopted by the Council in April 2019. In December 2022 a report to Cabinet reviewed progress in delivering the CTS to that point, and sought and received approval for a new 3 year Delivery Plan covering the period 2022/23 to 2024/25.

This report summarises progress and challenges in delivering that Plan in 2023 (calendar year) and briefly highlights the main activities taking place in 2024. It also includes an assessment of the extent to which the Council is meeting targets (both strategic and local level) set out in the CTS and risks/mitigations to future progress.
