Cabinet member for climate change, Nick Botterill said: “The strategy will set out what we will do to reduce our carbon footprint and improve climate resilience, and what communities and businesses in Wiltshire can do too.

“We all have a role to play to help Wiltshire on its journey to becoming carbon neutral and more resilient to climate impacts, and the forthcoming consultation will be people’s opportunity to have their say and help shape our county’s future.”
