Net Zero

Countesthorpe Parish Council resolved to create a Net Zero Working Group whose focus is to respond to the Parish Council’s commitment to becoming carbon neutral by 2030, in line with Blaby District Council’s objective and as part of the Net Zero Pilot Project. The Parish Council is focussed on key actions regarding its own business in an attempt to achieve this aim but would also like to ask the local community to join them on this journey and begin thinking about their own carbon footprint. Information, tips and advice will regularly be published in an aim to help Countesthorpe become carbon neutral.
