What we are doing
We have been busy since passing the climate emergency developing a climate change strategy and action plan.
- Launching the #SaveOurSeas campaign to reduce litter dumping into the sea, particularly plastics
- Installing solar panels on the roof of our main council offices at Muriel Matters House so we can produce some of our own electricity
- Encouraging recycling in the borough through My Hastings
- Improving street-cleaning services to reduce environmental waste
- Supporting community beach cleaning events
- Updating Electric Vehicle charging sites at Pelham Place and Marina car park
- Commissioned expert research to understand the interventions we need to plan for to meet carbon neutrality
- Updating our local plan policies to ensure it reflects the climate emergency ambitions
- Commissioned a study to understand what a zero-carbon new housing development would need to consider
There is a lot more that we are planning on doing as a council to tackle climate change. Details of this can be found in our strategy and interim action plan.
