Climate change information by local councils in Yorkshire and the Humber

=== The overall picture ===
Of the websites for the 22 local councils in this region, 8 (36%) are listed as having some information which ordinary concerned citizens might easily find, (with a further 3 containing small related items of information). This proportion may be slightly higher than for some other regions of the UK, with the best examples including several webpages and evidence of an inclusive and partnership approach. Although councils may have a webpage on climate change, it can sometimes be difficult to tell how up to date is the information provided.
