processClimate Change
Divestment from Fossil Fuels
Walking and Cycling
Air Quality
Biodiversity
Plastics
I wouls like to see a plastic free Greater Manchester and I would like to see alternatives used.
Aviation
Undecided
I believe that the emssions around Greater Manchester could be greatly reduced by other means as well as looking at flights such as ensuring the better use of local train stations with more services from them such as the Manchester Liverpool line to encourrage people to leave the car at home. And to use the canals again to haul cargo.
Energy Efficiency
I also belive that we should be looking at brown belt to extend on as opposed to building on pockets of green land in subhurbs. We need to look at run down houses and empty office block to change use. We need build houses for families not flats on every spare piece of land
