The Nottingham Declaration is a public commitment by local authorities to recognise the impacts of climate change and take action against it. Actions include delivering carbon dioxide reductions at the local level by improving energy sourcing, travel and transport, waste production and disposal, and the purchasing of goods and services.

In support of this, the Government is supporting the launch of a new climate change Action Pack for local authorities. The pack will provide tools and advice to local authorities on how to recognise the impacts of climate change locally and take action to minimise causes in their area.
