Aviation

The sound of silence? We want your views about aircraft noise.

During the Coronavirus lockdown we have a once in a lifetime opportunity to study noise pollution. For the first time in a generation, our skies are full of the sounds of nature undisturbed by the noise of aircraft. The countryside charity, CPRE Sussex believes this rare glimpse of peace and tranquillity is a golden opportunity to gain a better understanding of how people really feel about noise pollution.

The Wildlife Trusts @WildlifeTrusts·

This Government made commitments to reverse wildlife declines in the UK, which is currently one of the most nature-depleted places on the planet🌎 Planning reforms must be a key part of this. Have your say 👇 http://wtru.st/do-not-fail-wildlife

The Times reports my comments on the new formula for housing need & I was on Today earlier making the same points: for environmental & health reasons we should prioritise European-style city growth, not sprawl.

Our four-legged friends love to explore the countryside - but please remember to keep your dog under control 🐶

Make sure to keep your dog in sight at all times. When around farm animals and horses, it’s best to keep your dog on a lead. Look out for local signs for guidance!
