Climate Emergency Manchester - Hello


Hello and welcome to Climate Emergency Manchester.

We’re launching a new podcast on climate politics in the city. Each month we’ll review the council’s work plans, policies and progress with our team of citizen journalists – who we call Team Scrutiny. 

Our new podcast launches in June 2022.

episode 7: Ep. 7.1 - September Scrutiny Week


Simon, Lauren and Chloe discuss the revised Manchester Climate Change Framework. Presented as a draft in July, the revised framework makes clear how Manchester is failing to stay within the city’s carbon budget for the 21st century. But does it explain why, or propose a viable plan to get back on track?

Technical note: Due to a microphone malfunction, Simon’s voice sounds a bit rougher than normal. Sorry! We hope the content is still as engaging...

Note - There are a few swears. Nothing crazy but it was cathartic as &!@$.
