Motion unanimously passed at Council Meeting:
“In April, 2019, the Welsh Government Minister for the Environment, Energy and Rural Affairs, Lesley Griffiths, AM, declared a climate emergency in Wales.
Gwynedd County Council have already followed WAG and declared along with other authorities to follow the same footpath.
“I call on this Council to follow suit and sign up to the commitment to achieve a Carbon Neutral Public Sector by 2030. We must recognise that this Council cannot continue with business as usual, and prepare an action plan, which can be monitored and implemented.
We need to stop investing in fossil fuels, use our local planning policies to
accelerate the delivery of net zero carbon developments and communities.
We are in a position to make a difference for the sake of future generations,
and we have a moral duty to act”
