Global problem, local fix
The publication of the Government's Climate Change Strategy provides another timely reminder of the need for the UK to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. However, the government alone is not enough in promoting the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions. There are a number of methods which regions could use to meet their reduction obligations. The development of a regional energy strategy should set out a clear vision of what a low-carbon econmomy should look like on a regional scale. However, this regional energy strategy is unique to every region as each region differs from each other. Strategies must become embedded within regional and local policies to converge to deliver low carbon. Once the energy strategy has been agreed, both the public and private sectors should know their role in implementing such strategy. These are all possible with the unity combined from the national and international politics as long as the local authorities, regional government bodies, the business community and the general public work together.
