Are you a public sector organisation? Looking to hit carbon emissions reductions targets? With the Climate Change Assessment Tool (CCAT), you can assess your current performance and make a solid action plan for the future.

Cutting carbon emissions and preparing for the impact of changes to the climate already in the pipeline are two distinct, and complex, challenges for any organisation. You need everyone on board, and a coherent, far-seeing approach that will enable you to meet short-term goals whilst paving the way for long-term ambitions.

The Climate Change Assessment Tool (CCAT) has been specially devised to assist public sector organisations comply with the Climate Change (Scotland) Act 2009, both in terms of meeting carbon emissions reductions targets and reporting to the Scottish Government.
 

CCAT

The CCAT tool enables even a large organisation to formulate an honest appraisal of current practice, with 28 questions, covering 5 categories, leading to a self-assessment score of between 0-4. This is designed to be revisited annually, for up to five years, to give a comprehensive overview of progress made and where weaknesses continue to exist. It is not a marketing exercise, but an opportunity to come to terms with the challenges of climate change.
