Axing fossil fuels slashes emissions

23 November 2006
 
A Scottish council has reduced its carbon dioxide emissions by axing fossil fuels to power streetlights.
Aberdeen City Council set a target in 2004 to slash CO2 emissions to 10% below the 2002/03 level by 2010, and to 15% below 2002/03’s figure by 2015.
A report, released this week, reveals the council has, in only two years, achieved a 31% cut in the amount of gas it is creating, surpassing by a huge margin its target to cut emissions by one-tenth over a period of six years. In 2002/03, the council’s buildings, vehicles, streetlights and business travel created 47,926t of carbon.
The total for 2005/06 has plummeted to 33,457t by switching to buying green electricity from renewable sources.
