South Downs Climate Change Action Plan

South Downs Climate Change Action Plan

In  2020 the South Downs National Park Authority committed to contribute to addressing the climate and nature emergency by:

a)  Setting a target for the South Downs National Park Authority to become a ‘Net        Zero’ Organisation by 2030;

b)  Working with our constituent Local Authorities and other partners, in particular
local communities and landowners, to deliver actions that respond effectively to the
climate and nature emergency; and

c)  Working towards the South Downs National Park becoming ‘Net-Zero with
Nature’ by 2040, as set out in Appendix 1

A Climate Change Strategy and Action Plan was adopted and is updated every year. You can read the latest Climate Change Action Plan (2024-25).

The Action Plan includes a commitment to working with our constituent Local Authorities and other partners, in particular communities and landowners to deliver actions that respond effectively to the climate and nature emergency.
