Creative Scotland is taking significant steps to deliver its responsibilities under the Climate Change Act 2009. The new funding stream announced recently requires all applicants to demonstrate how they will contribute to the Connecting Theme of Environment, Creative Scotland announced in November that from 2014/15 anyone receiving funding will be asked to report their carbon emissions as part of the end of year reporting process.
