Submission History: Proposed by Councillor Coombes Council welcomes the Climate Emergency declarations made by both UK and Scottish governments in recent weeks and the proposed amendment to the Climate Change Bill which will set a target of 'net zero' emissions of greenhouse gases in Scotland by 2045 - the most ambitious statutory target in the world. Council however notes with concern that the Scottish Government has missed its statutory emissions targets for 2016 and 2017. Council therefore calls for a report on the actions in place, and planned, by the Council to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in Falkirk and the anticipated reductions which these would achieve.
