Warwickshire Climate Change Strategy
‘Thinking global, acting local’

Communications & Education

Objective

To communicate and educate staff and the wider communities of Warwickshire on their responsibilities and actions required to both adapt to, and limit, the effects of climate change in our county.

Context

6.1 Climate change is caused by all of us, and will have an impact upon every
individual, business and organisation in the future. This has become increasingly accepted nationwide and internationally in the past couple of years. The Partnership will build on this and will actively develop communications and education campaigns to promote awareness throughout the Council, partner organisations, other stakeholders and the general public, in collaboration with the local media.

The Citizens’ Panel results demonstrate a clear willingness on the part of the public to support actions to tackle climate change. 68% said that they thought that ownership of renewable energy schemes by communities and individuals should be encouraged.
