About this project

The City of London is continuing to develop our community’s Climate Emergency Action Plan. As a result of COVID-19, the plan was disrupted, but the City is now creating more time and opportunities for Londoners to provide input.

The Climate Emergency Action Plan is an urgent response to our changing climate. The goals are to reduce London’s greenhouse gas emissions by at least 30% by 2030 and reach net-zero by 2050.

A recent report to the Municipal Council’s Strategic Priorities and Policy Committee provided an update of the development of the Climate Emergency Action Plan, actions that have been under way, the revised schedule, initial ideas for engaging the community and London's businesses, and plans to carry on the work.

Developing the Climate Emergency Action Plan will be an ongoing process.
