Consultation has concluded

The new Climate Change Action Plan recognise the roles that Council and the community have in ensuring that QPRC contributes to local, regional and national efforts to mitigate and adapt to climate change through actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The Climate Change Action Plan has two separate documents:

Both draft Action Plans cover the period from 2020 to 2030. The plans set out mitigation and adaptation actions for Council operations and for the community. Council will be expected to develop annual public reports on its progress implementing the plans. In addition, Council will conduct an evaluation of the plans at the end of its term, to inform updated Climate Change Action Plans.

The Council Operations Climate Change Action Plan highlights opportunities for Council to make significant reductions in its emissions through a cost-effective program of action within its own day to day operations.

The Community Climate Change Action Plan recognises the important role the community has in addressing climate change and highlights measures that Council can facilitate to help the community take action as well as actions or measures individuals or communities can take to both mitigate and adapt to climate change impacts in the local region.
