How can local authorities engage the public on climate decision-making?

Avoiding the worst effects of climate change will be the biggest challenge in human history.
Local authorities and partnerships will play a key role both in getting the UK to net zero and ensuring their areas are ready for changing conditions. To do this in a way that is effective and fair, they will need to engage the public.
That’s why we and others developed Local Climate Engagement (LCE) - an innovative programme that uses a combination of training, mentoring, peer learning and hands-on support to assist local authorities in engaging their local communities.
