They noted that when the survey was first launched, transport was not listed as a key area of action, although this has since been updated and decarbonising transport is now listed at the top of the list.

The Greens also highlighted the framing of the survey on individual lifestyle choices rather than what Bath and North East Somerset (B&NES) Council and key stakeholders like the government and businesses should be doing.

Saskia Heijltjes (Green, Lambridge) said: “Transport is one of the most powerful tools the council has to cut emissions. It was shocking to see it left out in the first place.”

“We urge residents to speak up for better public transport, safer walking, wheeling and cycling, and serious action to reduce car journeys.

“The questions are vague and not measurable. People are asked whether they've reduced air travel, for example — but how can the council use that data to shape an effective strategy?”

The survey can be taken on the B&NES Council website or via printed copies in libraries at Midsomer Norton, Bath Central and Keynsham. The survey closes on June 16.

B&NES Council have been approached for comment.
