This survey is seeking views and opinions on a range of questions around environmental issues, potential priorities for the area's response and current barriers to reducing emissions. It will also help form Renfrewshire's plan for net-zero and will also recruit members of the Renfrewshire Climate Panel.
Respondents to the survey will be able to submit their interest in being part of the panel and the Council's research partner will create a representative climate panel from all interested community members.

The Panel will meet remotely in the first instance to discuss the ongoing work to tackle climate change and shape the direction of future decision making in Renfrewshire.
Renfrewshire Council Leader Iain Nicolson said: "To reach our ambitious net-zero target by 2030, we need everyone to recognise that tackling climate change and reducing emissions is everyone's responsibility.
"As a Council, we are continually working to reduce our emissions wherever possible and climate change is factored into every decision we make now and in the future.
"To make real change, we need our residents to make changes in their own lives and we'll also work with businesses and partners throughout Renfrewshire to drive the actions required to reach net-zero.
"This survey is a chance to help shape the important decisions we make in the coming years and community involvement will be crucial, so please take part in the survey and, if you're interested, put yourself forward to be part of our first Community Climate Panel."
The survey is open to Renfrewshire residents only and will close on Thursday 30 September 2021.
