Perth and Kinross Climate Survey

The Scottish Government is enacting plans to achieve Net Zero in Scotland’s carbon emissions by 2045. These national plans progress the vision of a more sustainable economy but will ultimately entail changes in operation for many businesses.

 
In alignment with the Scottish Government’s plans, Perth and Kinross Council created the Perth & Kinross Climate Action Plan detailing local initiatives, goals, and strategies to tackle climate change. As a part of these efforts, resources are available to assist businesses with the transition to Net Zero. There are additional resources at the end of the survey.


We have created this short survey for businesses in Perth & Kinross to determine their awareness of changes to climate legislation and gauge progress made towards national carbon emissions targets.
