Pathways to 40% CO2 cuts
21 August 2009

Friends of the Earth has commissioned research showing how councils can reduce their emissions by 40% by 2020.

The research, by Carbon Descent, models how different local authority types can reach 40% emissions cuts.

The results show that 40% cuts by 2020 is possible - and shows what mix of policies is best for different types of councils.

The polices are taken from the report: Getting Serious About Climate Change

This briefing summaries the research and its result:
