Partnership foreword
Our shared commitment

We are proud to present Kirklees' new 'Environment Strategy: Everyday, Life.' This strategy is a collective vision that serves as a guiding light for a greener, more resilient future for our people and places.
As we stand on the precipice of unprecedented global challenges, it has never been more important to commit to a more environmentally sustainable Kirklees.
In an era defined by climate change, biodiversity loss and resource depletion, collaborative action and partnership working is critical. Together, we recognise that addressing these challenges requires unity, determination, and innovative solutions.
Our collective of partner organisations, representing diverse sectors across Kirklees, have come together to co-create this strategy, underlining our shared commitment to making a difference.
The foundation of this strategy is the belief that a thriving environment is inextricably linked to the health and prosperity of our communities. We recognise that the pursuit of environmental sustainability is not just a matter of choice, but a fundamental responsibility. By working together, we aim to close the loop, nurture nature, improve our buildings and homes and get people and goods moving across Kirklees in a greener, more sustainable way.
As partners, we acknowledge that our journey towards sustainable development is not without its challenges. It requires investment, adaptability, and a commitment to learn from our successes and failures in equal measure. By working together across all sectors, sharing knowledge, building on our existing work, raising awareness, and cascading key messages and information across our networks and the local community, we will be better equipped to tackle these challenges head-on.
We invite you to join us on this journey. Together, we can create a future that is not only sustainable but also vibrant, thriving and enriched by our natural surroundings. It is our shared legacy, our gift to current and future generations.
