Achieving good performance
Councils´ performance on climate change will be assessed within Comprehensive Area Assessments (CAA) and against the climate change performance indicators.
If your council prepares a climate change action plan or plans following the advice on this website, it should have no difficulty demonstrating that it has robust systems in place to address climate change adaptation and mitigation and the three climate change performance indicators.
For specific advice on how to address different aspects of performance follow the links below.
