Enfield Council will be launching its updated Climate Action Plan at a "community networking and fun event" to be held at Edmonton Green Library on Saturday 22nd June.
The second edition of Enfield Council's Climate Action Plan was published earlier this week.
The council published the first version of the action plan in 2020, following the declaration of a climate emergency by full council in 2019. It outlines plans to make the council and borough "carbon-neutral" - by 2030 for the council as an organisation and by 2040 for the borough as a whole.
The council say that the revised plan "builds upon the same priorities as the previous plan and responds to our progress made in the last four years, as well as the changing policies, economic context and technological developments".
Some actions in the revised plan are based on recommendations from Enfield’s Local Area Energy Plan 2023 - one of the first local area energy plans (LAEP) developed by a London local authority. The plan was done in collaboration with the Centre for Sustainable Energy and supported by the Greater London Authority (GLA). Enfield is now also involved in the Central, East and Northeast London sub-regional LAEP undertaken by the GLA in collaboration with Arup.
To launch the updated action plan, the council is running an associated "community networking and fun event" at Edmonton Green Library - see the timetable below.
