A senior Knowsley council officer said a “revolution is coming and we need to get our heads around it” at a meeting of the borough’s climate emergency committee tonight.
The remarks, by executive director for communities and neighbourhoods, Andrew Donaldson, were made as councillors were given an update into the council ’s efforts to tackle carbon emissions in Knowsley.
While the council have a plan to get to net zero by 2040 and have been taking some steps towards that, Mr Donaldson said the scale of change required a “revolution” impacting every aspect of life for residents and businesses in the borough and beyond.
