• As the "Mini-Stern" Review found, tackling and adapting to climate change is not achieved at the expense of economic growth and regeneration. Rather, it will come through moving towards a lower carbon economy and society and harnessing the leadership, partnership, economics, development, planning and service delivery that underpin Manchester's established ways of working. In turn, far from simply"saving the planet", moving decisively towards a lower carbon economy and society can reap benefits for Manchester in the form of new competitive advantages, higher quality of life, better neighbourhoods and homes and more self-reliant communities. This is truly sustainable development.
