A strategic carbon review for Somerset County Council (SCC)
We worked with Islington Council to develop an initial model for channelling private and public sector green finance to fund urban tree-planting and pocket-park projects. We researched and quantified the different carbon, health, climate adaptation, economic, transport mode shift, air quality and ecosystem service benefits of planned projects. We used the latest green finance guidance to develop a viable early-stage market model based on these benefits tailored to urban environments, as well as a costed analysis of the resources required to convert urban land to greenspace.
