Bristol Green Capital

The One City Approach is a new model of governance and civic involvement, bringing together a wide range of public, private, and third sector partners within Bristol who share an aim to make Bristol a fair, healthy and sustainable city.

The first iteration of the One City Plan was published in January 2019, incorporating recommendations from Our Future and setting out our city’s key challenges up to 2050, bringing the city together around a shared vision.

Bristol Green Capital Partnership plays a key role in supporting two new governance structures – the One City Environment Board and the Bristol Advisory Committee on Climate Change (BACCC) – to help to drive forward the activities described in the One City Plan.

In 2020, the Environmental Sustainability Board released the One City Climate Strategy – which sets out the key things we need to do to achieve a carbon neutral and more climate resilient city by 2030 – and the One City Ecological Emergency Strategy – a 10-year plan to protect wildlife, ecosystems and habitats in the face of the rapid decline in wildlife locally and globally.
