This document contains a greenhouse gas emissions assessment and target scenario for the Cairngorms National Park, completed in October 2022 by Small World Consulting Ltd. It finds that, as the world focuses on the climate emergency, cutting greenhouse gas emissions and managing land sustainably are vital. It explains that this report looks at emissions related to what residents and visitors consume, including travel and a series of aligned recommendations. Because National Parks are mostly rural with agriculture and non-agricultural habitats, emissions from land use and management are included. Finally, the report sets Paris-aligned greenhouse gas emission targets for six key areas with a goal to reach net zero emissions by 2024.
