The event
This workshop will provide examples of good practice from around England on what different LEPs are doing to strengthen their local low carbon economy, manage carbon emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change. It will showcase why embracing the climate change agenda can stimulate local growth, provide more job opportunities and strengthen economic resilience. This event will draw on a report written by SWM, which provides an appraisal on each LEP’s commitment to climate change mitigation and adaptation.
