Across England we've had the sunniest March ever recorded and the 3rd driest March on record! For growers and farmers, the glorious sunshine was frequently accompanied by a dry easterly breeze, exacerbating the drying effect on the soils: for us this meant ewes with lambs in fields but the grass not growing.
In order to meet its targets for de-carbonising energy production in the UK, recent governments have resorted to consenting large-scale solar PV installations on farmland in our countryside.
Bat conservation, hedgehog conservation, engaging with local landowners, home energy saving, exploring renewable energy generation
We have declared a climate & environmental emergency, we voted that we would consider the climate & environment in every decision and action, we have embedded that within our formal process and hire agreements, etc, we created an ongoing phased Habitat Plan to improve biodiversity on land we own or manage, and we are working on a wider Climate & Environment Plan.
Our aim is to take action to address the climate emergency and to deliver the Devon Carbon Plan by creating a Devon that runs entirely on green energy. We believe that, rather than buying power from outside the country, we can produce clean, locally owned energy here in Devon. This will significantly boost our local economy, retaining approximately £1.76 billion in our county and creating a local industry and jobs across the region.
