Respondent: Mr Norman Castleton

Representation Summary:

The commentary in the Climate Change Statement seems to be a complete fantasy. Many of the things relating to living near services is not happening now either because the service do not exist, have been eliminated by austerity or development being allowed indiscriminately. No mention of nature from the small to the large. No mention of green lungs or recreational areas or water usage. No necessary wildness. In fact the opposite is occurring with the cutting down of trees for road or housing development. No recognition that there is a climate emergency.
