About GREN

Hi all

i wrote something earlier last week requesting people to respond to the climate action plan consultation. for some reason it didn't transmit to anyone and has disappeared from this site. if you got it before, i apologise for wasting your time again.

there is a noticeable push back in the UK against actions to reduce climate emissions and mitigation measures. Please respond to the Reading action plan consultation so that it is clear that Reading people are interested in this problem.

This is not a request for you to just say "the strategy and action plan is just brilliant"! The board and theme leads would welcome reasoned arguements for and against specific actions to improve the existing documents.

According to the website, the consultation closes on 3rd october, but  I am sure that the board will accept comments arriving for monday morning The documents can be seen on the link given below.  you don't have timePersonally, i find it impossible to answer online questionnaires and prefer to have a list of the questions printed out to scribble thoughts down as i go through the documents. Reading Friends of the Earth produced this useful thing and it can be downloaded from this site at

finally, if filling in the whole questionnaire would take time that you don't have, please remember that you do not have to answer every question but could focus on your areas of expertise or consider sending a quick email to the board at  info@readingcan.org.ukjust saying "i approve" or "i diapprove" and pointing out any specific issues where you have suggestions for change
