"THIS PARISH COUNCIL RECOGNISE THAT THERE IS A CLIMATE EMERGENCY.
THEREFORE WE PLEDGE THAT ALL DECISIONS THAT WE MAKE, SHOULD TAKE THIS INTO ACCOUNT.
AS A GENERAL RULE WE AIM TO REDUCE THE CARBON FOOTPRINT OF THE PARISH AND ACTIVITIES THAT THE PARISH COUNCIL HAVE INFLUENCE OVER".
It might seem that a Parish Council can’t really do much, but Climate change is relevant to many of our activities…
Advice for local residents and consumers.
Lobbying national government eg about energy and transport
Creating/preserving green space in the village and protecting biodiversity.
Working to improve public transport and cycling networks
Providing feedback on wider council strategies for transport, housing as well as specific feedback on planning applications.
This proposal provides justification to treat climate change as a factor in future decision making.
All levels of government national, regional and local, have a duty to secure our community from the negative impacts of climate breakdown. Local government should not wait for national government to change their policies.
