Allerdale Joins the Fight Against Climate Change

Signing of Nottingham declaration

Allerdale Borough Council shows its commitment to climate change by signing the Nottingham Declaration.

Over 200 local councils have signed up to the declaration, each pledging to actively tackle climate change in their area and help the UK deliver its national climate change targets.

Council Leader Joe Milburn signed the declaration on Allerdale’s behalf at a special Climate Change seminar for councillors – Local Solutions for Local Authorities.

By doing so he has committed Allerdale Borough Council to develop plans with partners and local communities to reduce energy use and congestion, improve the local environment and tackle local fuel poverty.

Councillor Milburn said: “This is a tough commitment but one that we must make, not just for our sakes but for the sakes of our children too.”
