RBWM is asking residents and businesses for comments on its draft Environment & Climate Strategy by 29 September 2020. Zoe and Wisdom show you how you can have your say.
This article, and others in this series, will help you understand how you can respond to the RBWM Environment & Climate Strategy Consultation and, the different ways you can submit a response to the Council
RBWM declared a Climate Emergency in June 2019 and, has followed that up by producing a draft Environment & Climate Strategy, and is asking for you to comment on it by 6pm on Tuesday 29 September 2020, as part of its consultation.
The Environment & Climate Strategy seeks to start to address the key issues that threaten our well being and, indeed, our continued existence on planet Earth.
Of you don’t believe me, watch the introduction to Sir David Attenborough’s recent programme, “Extinction: The Facts”
