Waverley Borough Council is asking for residents' views on its new Climate Emergency Action Plan.

The survey was launched this week, and will close on 16th October.

Waverley Borough Council declared a Climate Emergency last September, with its Executive approving the first draft of the Action Plan in March this year. The Action Plan sets out how the council can become carbon-neutral by 2030.

The authority says it is now seeking to understand what people think of the targets and actions it has set itself.

Councillor Steve Williams, Waverley Borough Council Portfolio Holder for Environment and Sustainability, said: "I would urge everyone in Waverley to get involved and give us their thoughts on this critical issue and where we should focus our attention going forward.

"The information gathered from our residents, businesses and other key groups in the borough will offer valuable insight into what we as a council can do to reduce carbon emissions, but also highlight what we can all do as a community to help achieve the goal of being carbon-neutral by 2030.

"Waverley Borough Council has already set to work on cutting back its carbon emissions and supporting the move towards a net-zero carbon Waverley borough by 2030.

"It has allocated £300,000 directly in support of the Climate Emergency Action Plan, and is now looking at building zero-carbon homes, making Waverley buildings more energy efficient, supporting community energy hubs, promoting walking and cycling and sustainable transport and harnessing solar energy in strategic locations."
