SustainabiliTEA #18 // City of Adelaide Integrated Climate Strategy 2030 - Amplifying Action

Please join us for another ASBN SustainabiliTEA - a time to enjoy some tea (or morning beverage of your choice) whilst having a yarn about a diversity of topics around sustainable and regenerative built environments.

-------------

Our upcoming SustainabiliTEA session will be with City of Adelaide 

Let’s work together on our resilient, protected and sustainable city!

City of Adelaide have developed their draft Integrated Climate Strategy 2030 to set the vision for a resilient, protected, and sustainable city where people can live, work, study and play, and adapt to changes in the climate that bring social and economic opportunity and disruption.

During our session, they will talk about their proposed approach to a resilient, protected and sustainable city and then open up for questions and feedback. They are keen to hear about the ways they can support everyone to play their part in reducing emissions and creating a resilient, protected and sustainable city. Collectively government, community and businesses need to work together towards this future.

We look forward to hearing about their plans and your ideas whilst sharing space with you all virtually with a soothing cuppa!

About the draft Integrated Climate Strategy

The Strategy will collate the following existing strategies and action plans for integration into a single Strategy that focuses Council’s climate activities and investment:

• Climate Action Plan 2022-2025
• Carbon Neutral Strategy 2015-2025
• Climate Risk Adaptation Plan 2021-2026
• Resource Recovery Strategy and Action Plan 2020-2028
• Zero Emissions Vehicle Plan 2019-2030
• Water Sensitive Cities Plan 2021-2025
• Integrated Biodiversity Management Plan 2018-2023

A review of actions across the existing strategies and plans has been undertaken to prioritise those that best align with the feedback from Council to date on its climate priorities and with reference to the strategic priorities set out in Council’s draft Strategic Plan 2024-2028. The draft Strategy includes themes from all existing plans updated to reflect Council priorities.
