Climate Change and Environment Cabinet Portfolio
Challenges and risks
Climate Change and Environment services have identified a number of challenges and risks, these include:
- long term investment in Climate Change Strategy – we need to build funding into the budget as the existing budget is fully committed
- management demands following housing growth (waste collection north, household recycling centres)
- reliability of Alternative Fuel waste collection vehicles within the council’s term
- the combined impact of Brexit and COVID on the availability of HGV Drivers
- the value of recycling collected kerbside – likely to impact delivery of recycling initiatives
- fly-tipping – continuing to enforce particularly in South Bucks
