The Auckland Council launched the website “Auckland’s Climate Plan,” which features its long-term climate action approach and priority areas for delivering emissions reduction and adaptation plans.
In December 2020, the New Zealand government declared a climate emergency. The following is a path towards net-zero emissions by 2050 to contribute to delivering the Paris Agreement to keep the temperature rise below 1.5°C.
The Auckland Council also declared a climate emergency in recognition of the impending threats of climate change and its potential impact on communities, infrastructure, the economy, and the natural environment.
The Auckland’s Climate Plan identifies three main climate actions:
- Aucklander’s response reflects their values and principles and one that is also appropriate for the Māori community,
- Reducing GHG emissions by 50% by 2030 and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, and
- Climate adaptation and preparation are based on the potential risks to the city’s infrastructure and residents.
The Auckland’s Climate Plan website also works as a digital platform where users can explore the city’s climate plans and actions on priority areas such as the natural environment, built environment, transport, economy, communities and coast, food, energy and industry, energy and industry, and protection of Maori culture and heritage sites.
The management pledges to update the site regularly, so keep informed and visit the site regularly.
