THEME 2: Climate Action
The factors that contribute to Climate Change as well as its effects are wide ranging and relate to a significant number of other issues that will be informed by the next Development Plan.
Climate Action must be a central theme and an ever-present factor/principle throughout the next Development Plan.
The provision of well-serviced neighbourhoods will ensure permeability and an attractive walking and cycling environment which will reduce reliance on cars and ‘help’ Climate Change.
The next Development Plan will play an important role through the implementation of its policies and objectives to help address mitigation and adaptation requirements and move towards a low-carbon, resilient county.
