Following this a consultation was launched with 561 respondents, and detailed written submissions from community groups. The consultation found overwhelming support for Richmond Council to take action on climate change with 85% of respondents saying it was one of the top three priorities for the Council and over half saying it was the top priority for the Council. 75% agreed that the target of being carbon neutral as an organisation by 2030 was appropriate. In addition, there was overwhelming support for the approaches proposed for the individual sections of the strategy. An extensive communications plan was developed and delivered, including posters, promotion via social media, information on the Richmond website and video content. Two climate change summits were held: A youth focused summit, which included 160 children from 19 schools, which Sir David Attenborough attended for an hour long Q&A session on climate change and reflections on his life’s work highlighting the fragility of our planet and the need for action in addressing the climate emergency; An adult focused summit, attended by 130 people and facilitated on the day by representatives from local environment and climate change groups. Officers met with key local partners, including Achieving for Children and South West London Environmental Network and officers in other London Boroughs, attended London-wide officer network events, including the London Environment Directors Network (LEDNet) Climate Change Group, the LEDNET policy group and the London Policy and Strategy Network. An initial review of progress on the RCES and first action plan was reported to Committee in September 2020 and a comprehensive report and update on every action went to a public committee meeting in February 2021. Alongside this, an updated action plan for 2021 was scrutinised and agreed. Plans are underway for the council to hold a week long climate event in Richmond at the same time as COP26 that will allow residents, businesses and local groups to come together to talk about and take action on climate change. The main themes of the week would be aligned with those in the Climate Emergency Strategy and outputs from a variety of sessions will inform the refresh of the action plan for 2022.
