- Climate Change
- Climate Change is something that affects us all. As the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere rises, so does our average temperature. Warmer, wetter winters and hotter, drier summers have been predicted for the future along with an increase in the severity of extreme weather events. Mansfield District Council is aiming to reduce its own effect on Climate Change through positive action and help you to reduce your impact too.
