Planning plays a crucial role in the transition to a zero-carbon society, engaging communities and enabling environmentally friendly choices in everything from energy to transport.
The RTPI has been championing the role of planning in delivering climate mitigation and adaptation, and increasing the resilience of our communities to climate change. It is essential that we not only plan for new nature opportunities but also ensure that existing places benefit from nature recovery.
We have called for bold policies and strategies to reduce emissions across key sectors including construction, resource management, land use, transport and energy.
