The changing global climate due to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will increasingly lead to extreme weather. In Fife, this will be experienced as flooding from rising sea levels and more frequent rainstorms which our infrastructure will struggle to cope with. We need to reduce our emissions longer term and make sure we are better able to cope with these extremes.
Our ambitions for Fife
- Fife has lower levels of carbon emissions in line with national targets (75% by 2030 from 1990 baseline).
