Oxford City Council is one of the few local authorities to recognise the demands of Extinction Rebellion and has set up a Citizens Assembly to help steer it though the Climate Emergency. Here is their report, published on 16th December 2019 responding to the CA's first season of deliberations. The report contains a series of commitments that the City Council will adopt to manage the climate crisis.
Sustainability is often defined as meeting the needs of present
generations without risking the ability of futures generations to meet
their own needs and should lead to a better quality of life for
everyone, now and for generations to come.
