Our Commitment to Climate Action

 

Wellington Town Council is committed to tackling climate change and aiding our community in doing the same. In April 2022 our Council unanimously recognised the climate emergency and accepted a draft Climate Change Strategy proposal. The Council also agreed to a goal of carbon neutrality by the year 2030.

 

We have compiled useful information, advice, resources, and tips & tricks under six headings to help our residents combat climate change however they can.
