How do we fund the region’s ambitious climate goals?

The Yorkshire and Humber Climate Commission wants your views on how to leverage the funds needed to achieve the region’s ambitious climate action goals.

We are seeking feedback via our latest conversation on Finance and Investment, which is now live on our Commonplace platform.

Significant investment is needed to fund initiatives that will reduce emissions, restore nature and help us adapt to a changing climate. The UK’s financial sector has committed to reaching net zero, but as the delivery of climate plans happens in our towns, cities and countryside, we’ve looked at how to make finance work on a local level.

Informed by a range of expert testimonies, we have developed a proposed set of actions for tackling this issue in Yorkshire and Humber, as set out in our draft Climate Action Report.

Responses to the short, five-minute survey will help shape a final position paper on the subject, which will be presented to the region’s leaders and decision makers.

So give us your feedback today!
