01st April 2019 – 31st March 2020The Manchester Climate Change Agency CIC (MCCA) was incorporated on 02nd September 2015 with the aim to ‘Undertake activities that support, encourage and enable individuals and organisations in Manchester and beyond to act on climate change’, as set out in the Agency’s Articles of Association.MCCA, working with the Manchester Climate Change Partnership (MCCP) endeavours to carry out activities which benefit the community and in particular (without limitation) to undertake activities that support, encourage and enable organisations and organisations in Manchester and beyond to take action on climate change. Our work is to ensure Manchester meets its commitment to ‘play its full part in limiting the impacts of climate change’, ensuring that we help to keep global heating to well below 2 degrees centigrade. And additionally ensuring that climate change action also helps our communities to thrive, our businesses to prosper, and that we continue to draw people and businesses to the city to share in our success. Throughout 2019-2020 both MCCA and the MCCP has continued to make progress against this aim. The Manchester Climate Change Partnership is the city’s main mechanism for engaging and inspiring organisations and residents to act. The Partnership currently has over 70 members, across 11 sectors, with responsibility for over 20% of Manchester’s direct CO2 emissions. Its members also have reach into the remaining 80% through their staff, students, customers, tenants, football fans, theatre-goers, worshippers, and others. By working with their supply chains members are also helping to reduce the city’s consumption-based CO2 emissions. The Partnership’s current membership is outlined at https://www.manchesterclimate.com/MCCP.Building on the Agency and Partnership’s work in 2018/19, which included the development of a science-based carbon budget and reduction pathway that is aligned with the Paris Agreement, in 2019/20 the Agency published the Manchester Climate Change Framework 2020-25, the city's high-level strategy for tackling climate change.The Framework was produced by the Manchester Climate Change Partnership and Agency and set out our aim “Manchester will play its full part in limiting the impacts of climate change and create a healthy, green, socially just city where everyone can thrive.” It was endorsed by Manchester City Council in March 2020, formally establishing it as the city’s climate change strategy. The framework establishes four objectives that the city needs to meet by 2025 in order to meet our aim:-Staying within our carbon budgets To ensure that Manchester plays its full part in helping to meet the Paris Agreement objectives by keeping our direct CO2 emissions within a limited carbon budget, takingcommensurate action on aviation CO2 emissions and addressing our indirect / consumption-based carbon emissions.-Climate Adaptation and Resilience To adapt the city’s buildings, infrastructure and natural environment to the changing climate and to increase the climate resilience of our residents and organisations.-Health and WellbeingTo improve the health and wellbeing of everyone in Manchester through actions that also contribute to our objectives for CO2 reduction and adaption and resilience, with particular focus on those most in need.-Inclusive, Zero Carbon and Climate Resilient EconomyTo ensure that Manchester establishes an inclusive, zero carbon and climate resilient economy where everyone can benefit from playing an active role in decarbonising and adapting the city to the changing climate.The Framework can be viewed here: https://www.manchesterclimate.com/sites/default/files/Manchester%20Climate%20Change%20Framework%202020-25.pdfTo support the implementation of the Framework, MCCA began developing a Zero Carbon Communities Programme with a number of partners to put residents and communities at the heart of climate action and provide clear and consistent advice accessible to different communities on what actions matter and the co-benefits of action. So far, we have developed a set of tools, guidance and templates for communities and residents to use and plug their own ideas into the overarching framework based upon the Tyndall Centre approved 15 Actions (http://www.manchesterclimate.com/15-actions ). The programme is scheduled to launch in March 2021: https://www.manchesterclimate.com/content/zero-carbon-communities-programme.
The stakeholders for the organisation are everyone who lives, works and studies in Manchester, we all have a part to play in tackling climate change and securing a zero carbon and climate resilient future. Consultation with Businesses and OrganisationsThe Agency’s principle engagement and consultation mechanism is the Manchester Climate Change Partnership, which provides access to organisations with responsibility for over 20% of Manchester’s direct CO2 emissions and the ability to engage with the remaining 80% through supply chains, customers, partners, and others. The Partnership’s key priorities for the Agency to deliver with and on behalf of the Partnership are set out in Manchester Climate Change Annual Reports. The priorities for 2019/20 were set in the 2018 Annual Report, available from: https://www.manchesterclimate.com/progressUnderpinned by the Annual Report, the Agency also organises Manchester Climate Change Annual conferences to provide an update on progress to stakeholders and provide the opportunity for feedback and discussion.Consultation with Residents and CommunitiesMCCA social media channel communications provide further channels for dialogue between the Agency and its stakeholders. In 2019/20 this included: -A total of over 25,000 visits to www.manchesterclimate.com-Over 20 articles on our Facebook page-Over 3,000 Twitter followers, 173 tweets and 5,478 page visits The 2019/20 Annual Report commits the Agency to establish a new Zero Carbon Communities programme, to create a mechanism for ongoing dialogue with the city’s residents and communities, to provide support, and to remove the barriers that are currently limiting and preventing residents’ climate action.Consultation with Young PeopleThe Manchester Climate Change Youth Board continues to be the Agency’s main mechanism for consulting with the city’s young people. In 2019/20 the Agency supported the recruitment of additional Youth Board members and started the process to establish a new ‘Youth Champion for Climate Action’.Furthermore, the Agency supported Manchester City Council in the organisation of two youth summits, one in July 2019 and a follow-up event in January 2020. Over 300 young people aged between 9 and 14 attended the events and voiced their opinions on how they and their schools can start to become zero carbon, and the additional support required from the Agency, City Council, and other organisations. Further information on the Summits is available from http://www.manchesteryouthcouncil.co.uk/news/youth-climate-action-summit-2020.
