Helping tackle the climate emergency – Haringey’s Climate Change Action Plan

We are in a climate emergency, and in response, Haringey has launched the draft Haringey Climate Change Action Plan (HCCAP) which sets out the commitment to become Net Zero Carbon by 2041.

We’d like to invite all schools to visit the engagement platform to give their feedback on and improve and refine the action plan further. Please also share the link to the platform and poster with students, staff members and parents to spread the message to as many people as possible.

 Website: Draft HCCAP engagement platform Live until 4 January 2021

What is the draft action plan about?

Climate change will impact us all, in different ways. It is key that we act by reducing our carbon emissions. The plan is designed to tackle climate change, enhance energy efficiency, reduce carbon emissions and improve air quality. It sets out how the council, partners and community all need to work collaboratively and collectively together to meet our objectives. The key contribution you can make as a school is by setting a School Net Zero Carbon Action Plan.

You can visit the engagement website to:

  • Find out more about the council’s strategy to reduce carbon emissions in the borough to net zero by 2041
  • Answer questions on a range of topics
  • Tell us what you are already doing to reduce emissions, what you would do and what support you need
  • Set out what you feel are the priority areas we should target first with our interactive Carbon Reduction Priority Tool
  • Tell us about your ideas for carbon reduction projects that you want to deliver
