Action on climate and nature
The climate and ecological crises are the greatest challenges we face.
Climate change is the change in average conditions, such as temperature or rainfall. Over a long period of time this will have a serious impact on our environment and biodiversity.
To acknowledge this and take action, we have declared a climate emergency and an ecological emergency, and we have adopted a Climate Action Plan.
