Climate Breakdown Shakedown – Decarbonisation



https://xrgreenwich.com/climate-breakdown-shakedown/
The borough of Greenwich, responding to campaigns by XR Greenwich among others, last year declared a “climate emergency”, and acknowledged that, to confront the danger of global warming, we need to find ways to make the economy fossil-fuel-free. In January the council agreed the outlines of a decarbonisation plan. While XR demands zero carbon by 2025, the council is targeting net zero carbon by 2030.

Now we need to talk about how to turn aspirations into reality. We will make a start at this “climate breakdown shakedown” session, which will be run as a zoom conference, with a panel including Greenwich councillors and other campaigners with experience of working on decarbonisation at local government level.

Discussion to be opened by Andrew Pendleton (New Economics Foundation), Chloe Jeffries (Manchester Climate Emergency), David Gardner (Greenwich councillor – Labour) and Denise Scott-McDonald (Greenwich councillor – Labour).
