This document sets out Manchester City Council’s commitments to tackling climate change over the next 5 years and builds on previous action plans over the last decade. The Council, alongside a number of other strategic partners in the city, have produced this plan to support the delivery of the citywide Manchester Climate Change Framework 2020-25 which has been produced by the Manchester Climate Change Partnership and Agency (http://www.manchesterclimate.com/plan). It summarises the specific actions which are required to ensure that the Council reduces its direct emissions by at least 50% by 2025 whilst also playing our full part in supporting and influencing the city to do the same. It also covers the Council’s plans for adapting to the expected impacts of climate change and supporting and influencing others, including through the implementation of the Manchester Green and Blue Infrastructure Strategy 2015-25.
