… and a half times more. 12 Taken from the Wirral report generated by Tyndall Centre for Climate Change local carbon budget tool. A more recent version of the tool with updated emissions data indicates the need to reach near zero by 2042. 13 Ideally, we need to reduce pollution by more than 13.4% early on. Doing this would help stretch our remaining budget over a longer period. If we do…
… to this level or better by around 2030 Using energy as efficiently as possible is a no brainer. We can’t afford to waste energy anymore. We need to get more from the energy we use. We need to use less overall. Cutting energy waste will cut our energy costs and carbon emissions. Cutting energy demand through energy efficiency will also reduce bills, improve levels of comfort in our homes…
… goals: To stay within a local emissions ‘budget’ of 7.7 million tonnes (Mt) of CO2 between 2020-2100 and to reach ‘net zero’ pollution as early as possible before 2041 (Box 1.1). To ensure a climate resilient Wirral adapted to cope with existing change and further unavoidable disruption this century (Box 1.2). Box 1.1: Staying within Wirral’s emissions budget and reaching ‘net zero…
… and wetter winters; - More storms and floods; and, - A rise in sea levels. Wirral organisations and households need to adapt to these changes to avoid further disruption To meet our fair share of the global pollution reduction burden means cutting CO2 by an at least an average of 13.4% each year compared to the present reduction of around 3.8 % per year (Figure 3)1213, i.e. around three…
… within our emissions ‘budget’ and getting to net zero climate pollution and we must aim for: Leaner use of energy: To reduce the overall demand for energy in Wirral across residential, commercial and industrial sectors making sure all homes currently below Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) Band C that can be upgraded are improved to this level or better by around 203015 Clean energy…
