Consultation
Meeting Tomorrow’s Challenge Today – a Climate Change Strategic Framework for Hertfordshire
In January 2008, Hertfordshire Forward agreed to the development of a Climate Change Strategy for Hertfordshire. Since then, significant work has been undertaken with members of the Hertfordshire Climate Change Partnership to develop a Climate Change Strategy that is accessible, contemporary and relevant to Hertfordshire.
The document is now available as a final draft for consultation. The consultation will close on Friday 2 October 2009. A series of questions are incorporated into the consultation process to guide respondents. These can be downloaded below along with the Strategy. Responses to the consultation should be submitted to climate.change@hertscc.gov.uk.
