Reading Climate Change partnership aims to work across all sectors to deliver urgent appropriate action to reduce Reading’s contribution to climate change and to adapt to climate change which occurs. The Partnership is a cross sector grouping of statutory, voluntary, higher education and business leaders involved in setting the Climate Change Strategy for Reading.

The partnership seeks to:

* Build a sustainable, low carbon economy in Reading, focussed on meeting local needs.
* Develop strategies that reduce carbon footprints, and support action towards resilience and adaptation through enabling behaviour change, education and collaboration.
* Bring about changes to organisational attitudes, policy and practice, supporting climate change mitigation and adaptation actions accross all sectors.
* Provide a leadership role in relation to climate change.
