5. Scotland’s Global Footprint Project REAP used to map area-wide consumption-based emissions, to develop scenarios and to assess efficacy of policy interventions. North Lanarkshire Council, Aberdeen City Council and Aberdeenshire Council. Shetland also bought in to REAP. Carbon Trust LA Carbon Management Programme Focused on LA estates/services. Strategic approach developed through SSN engagement from Sept 2006. Mitigation Tools Proliferation SSN Sept Quarterly profiled multiple approaches available to local authorities.
