Redbridge Environmental Action Plan (REAct)
REAct is an environmental strategy for the Borough. It
outlines how the Council and other key organisations, such as the
Police, the Fire Brigade, NHS Redbridge and local community groups,
intend to make Redbridge a cleaner, greener and more sustainable
borough and tackle our biggest environmental challenge, climate
change.
Every aspect of modern life, from the way we travel and the food
we eat to the way we build our homes or run our businesses can have
an impact on the environment, now and for future generations. Also,
the global threat of climate change is likely to have local
impacts here in Redbridge.

Two parts
REAct is divided into Part A and Part B.
Part A is the strategy, describing why and how
Redbridge intends to maintain and improve its environment from 2010
to 2018. Part A describes the reasoning behind the five key areas
and highlights the main targets and aspirations.
Part B is the Action Plan and lists the actions
to be undertaken by the Council and our partners to help achieve
the aims of the strategy.
One goal
REAct has a simple aim: to maintain and, where possible, improve
the environment and to make sure that Redbridge meets the needs of
the present generation without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs.
As a borough-wide strategy, it promotes joint and efficient
working to ensure the environment remains a top priority in
Redbridge.
What you can do
Our Environmental Action Plan includes actions for many Council
Departments and other key organisations in Redbridge. However, we
cannot operate alone.
Responsibility for our environment lies with everyone who lives
or works in the Borough and our residents have an important role to
play.
