*A carbon neutral Cheshire East*
Carbon logo
We've developed a new action plan to help in the fight against climate change in Cheshire East - and we'd like your views in our consultation.
The action plan shows how the council could influence carbon reduction across the borough in line with the government’s binding target of being net zero by 2050.
The road to carbon neutrality will not only reduce the borough's contribution to climate change but have the additional benefits of improving the wellbeing of residents with warmer homes, cleaner air, cheaper transport, and increased biodiversity.
Have your say in the consultation *before Friday 31 May.*

These comprehensive plans (developed and co-produced by the Cheshire East Mental Health Partnership Board and Cheshire East Learning Disability Partnership Board) outline a clear roadmap for improving the quality of life for people living with mental health and disabilities.

Air quality strategy consultation
We published an air quality strategy in 2011, which was subsequently reviewed and updated in 2018. The aim of the strategy is to support the achievement of the national air quality objectives and to ensure air quality is considered within a wide range of local government and regional planning frameworks. It aims to drive greater improvements in air quality at the local level and is reviewed on a five-yearly basis.
Due to the changes in legislation, plus the current strategy being more than five years old, we are undertaking a review of the strategy and would like your views on the proposed air quality strategy for 2024 to 2029.
*Closes: Friday 17 May 2024*
