## Notice

A study on how local levers can be used to encourage people and businesses to take more environmentally sustainable actions in Greater Manchester. This includes all local levers within our legal, regulatory and policy control and could include procurement protocols, local authority taxes and levies and the use of 'soft power'. This work is focussed on the Sustainable Consumption and Production (SCP) theme within the 5-year Environment Plan; however, the impacts of any changes may benefit the desired outcomes in the other Themes.
