Question · Action Scorecards 2025
Criteria met if climate action (alternatively called sustainability or environment) is listed as one of the council's core priorities or equivalent. It must have its own heading or section and a net zero target date must be referenced.
The net zero target date must clearly be an area-wide target, either the UK Government's national target, the devolved nation's target or the council's area-wide net zero target.
A mid-term Financial Plan is a plan (often covering four years) which sets out the council's commitment to provide services that meet the needs of people locally and that represent value for money within the overall resources available to the council.
We will accept other language for target dates, such as carbon neutrality.
Wording such as net zero, without a specific target date, is not valid for a mark.
