Hampshire County Council - Hampshire Partnership -Climate Change Vision and StrategyAssessment: Core Delivery Elements for Three Measures

Brighton & Hove – Site Waste Management Plans – Engagement, Reduction and Enforcement

Food & Drink Federation – All Carbon Mapping Approaches

Renewable Energy Funding LLP Lots more, UCAS, Westons, MAS

Outcome 1.1 We will have minimised Gloucester’s contribution to

climate change and addressed the local consequences

Outcome 1.2 The heritage of our natural and built environment is

central to our quality of life and we take action year-on-year to protect, enhance and cherish it

Outcome 1.3 The reduction of waste in Gloucester to a level that

can be managed in a sustainable way

Outcome 2.4  There are high quality open spaces and built

facilities for culture, recreation and leisure

 Outcome 3.2  Everyone has improved access to decent, warm

and affordable homes

Partnership is why we are here, to deliver these together

The Stern Report indicated that society should now be spending between 1-2% of GDP on responding to climate change in order to avoid far larger costs in the future.

GEP Said The NI186 Delivery Plan and work around NI188 are

showing how difficult it is to secure the resources necessary at a local level to contribute to the national response.

Addressing this gap will be a key challenge for GP in terms of establishing more secure and long term resourcing streams able to support the carbon reduction and climate change adaptation activity that is required now and in the future.

A global transition to a low carbon and sustainable economy can create large numbers of green jobs across many sectors of the economy, and indeed can become an engine of development.

Environmental technologies—€1,000 billion at present, €2,200 billion by 2020.

Energy efficiency technologies: €450 billion at present, €900 billion by 2020

Water supply/sanitation/water efficiency: €185 billion at present, €480 billion by 2020

Sustainable transport: €180 billion at present; €360 billion by 2020.

Reuse of all heat from brewing process Reuse of most of the water it uses Able to sell 3% more of its beer in the first

half of last year, against an industry trend of falling beer sales.

It reported pre-tax profits of £882,000 for the six months to the end of June 2009.

“Because our business is much more energy efficient, we were able to hold our prices all of last year and that had a tremendous effect.”

Achieved:

When the brewery facilities needed modernising, Adnams was determined not to take the short-term, initially cheaper option.

“...we took the view it would last for 20 years, and so we wanted lower running costs”.

Standard disclosure from local governments can help cities share best practice, manage risk, increase operational effectiveness and cost savings, attract investment, foster innovation and ultimately lead to safer, more prosperous cities.

This Group can help across to the Partnership to:1. Define Priorities – 1 month2. Define Baseline and Opportunities – 2

months1. Carbon2. Waste

3. Define Partnership Actions to address areas of concern

We need a action facing group.Please let me know if this can help in

these times.
