To help local authorities succeed in meeting ambitious decarbonisation targets, the Centre for Climate Change and Social Transformations (CAST) and the Tyndall Centre for Climate Change Research – working with Greater Manchester Combined Authority – have developed a Carbon and Co-Benefits Decision Support Tool. This free, Excel-based tool that can be completed by local authority officers supports senior decision-makers to take a holistic approach to decision-making, by providing them with a clear and concise summary of how projects and policies impact across a range of strategically important areas including climate and environment, equality and inclusion, health, economy, housing and mobility.

Aimed at: Local authorities and those working with them seeking to reduce carbon emissions
