The UK faces an unprecedented challenge in achieving its legally binding target of reducing emissions by 68% by 2030 and reaching Net Zero by 2050 while also tackling the cost of living crisis and revitalising regional economies. Mayors and local leaders are uniquely positioned to deliver integrated solutions that address these challenges simultaneously as they have a deep understanding of their communities' needs and the ability to drive change on the ground.

UK100 is the country's only cross-party network of local leaders committed to ambitious climate action. Alongside our 113 local and regional members, we are calling on the new government to put local climate action at the heart of the devolution agenda.
