Dear all,

I hope this finds you well! North Tyneside Council would like to invite you to have your say on how we best reduce our carbon footprint. You don’t have to be an expert in climate change, you just need to live or work in North Tyneside!
We’ve made good progress towards our carbon Net-Zero 2030 target and we would like residents and businesses in North Tyneside to tell us what more we can achieve.
Net-Zero means getting a balance between the number of emissions produced into the atmosphere and the number of emissions removed from the atmosphere. This could be by reducing the number of emissions created by vehicles or manufacturing, using technology to capture emissions from the atmosphere, or planting more trees to absorb emissions.

North Tyneside Council declared a Climate Emergency in 2019 which built upon the work we had been doing for well over a decade. As part of that, we published the North Tyneside Net-Zero 2030 Action Plan my.northtyneside.gov.uk/sites/default/files/web-page-related-files/Carbon%20Net%20Zero%202030_Action%20Plan-Appendix%201%20%281%29.pdf(opens in new window)  based on a range of perspectives, covering both our own council operations and for the borough as a whole.
The council is only directly responsible for two per cent of the borough’s carbon emissions, so we absolutely need the help of our residents, businesses and local organisations to work with us to achieve this target.

The North Tyneside Net-Zero 2030 Action Plan has been updated and reported on annually and we are very proud of what has been achieved across the borough since 2019. As 2024 is a five-year milestone in our journey towards our net-zero goal, we would like to invite you to have your say and help us shape the future as we review our action plan up to 2030.

You can find the survey here. Please do share this widely with your communities.
