Nearly a decade has passed since the Mayor of London pledged to make the capital the greenest global city. With only a few years remaining until London’s 2030 net zero target, the focus is now firmly on delivery rather than ambition.
This context frames the London Assembly Environment Committee’s latest investigation, Progress on priorities: London’s Environmental Temperature Check. The inquiry will assess how effectively London is progressing against key environmental and energy priorities, including air quality, climate resilience, biodiversity, emissions reduction and the circular economy.
Taking stock through evidence and dialogue
Rather than relying solely on headline indicators, the Committee is seeking insight from those directly involved in delivering, shaping and experiencing environmental policy across the capital. A formal Call for Evidence has been launched to gather written submissions from organisations, professionals and community groups.
As part of the investigation, the Committee will also host a stakeholder forum at City Hall in February, bringing together contributors to discuss progress, barriers and lessons learned.
Forum at City Hall – February
In February, London Assembly Environment Committee will hold a forum to take stock of how the Mayor has been hitting his targets for London. The event will take place at City Hall during the morning of Tuesday 3 February, with attendance by expression of interest to ensure a balanced and focused discussion.

Why this matters
Environmental policy increasingly shapes how London is planned, built, retrofitted and operated. From air quality and energy performance to climate adaptation and green infrastructure, the findings of this investigation will inform future scrutiny and priorities for the London Assembly.
For professionals across the built environment, sustainability, infrastructure and local governance sectors, this process offers a meaningful opportunity to help shape the next phase of London’s environmental agenda.
