Research has found investing at a local level generates a far greater positive impact than a national 'one size fits all' strategies. Tackling a complex problem like climate change requires solutions tailored to the local place. That's what makes investing in councils such a powerful option.

We are serious about making sure you are connected with what your money is really delivering. That’s why our council investments comply with the Green Loan Principles - a simple framework that lets you see exactly what the money is being used for - and we report to you on councils’ progress across the investment term.

If we are going to tackle climate change, we need to get a move on. That means actually delivering the green infrastructure that will underpin a more sustainable society. And the responsibility for delivering and enabling much of that infrastructure sits with councils.

Our council investments help fund that essential work. Whether it is installing EV chargers, cutting energy use in council-owned buildings, electrifying council vehicles, or installing clean energy, it all needs to be done if we are to cut our environmental impact.
