“We want to collect as much knowledge as possible about the main concerns and needs among different sectors in the municipality, and citizens in general regarding this topic to then develop an action project adapted to the town's reality and which is sustainable over time”, explains the municipal department responsible.
The Integrated Climate Change Mitigation and Adaptation Plan will be the roadmap used by Gernika-Lumo Municipal Council to align itself with the goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions established at international and regional level.
