Climate Change – Is the NW ready to adapt?

With the latest climate predictions anticipating a need for greater adaption to water and temperature extremes in the future (if this Summer wasn’t bad enough for simultaneous drought orders and floods...), Chemicals Northwest are helping with a consultation to see whether the region has the right level of activities to protect businesses and residents.

The full consultation is available through this website (http://bit.ly/a6QJxD) – views from business would be welcome through the Environment Agency contact on the website. Don’t be daunted by the 50 pages – in the second section, p41 is the important page for businesses in the chemicals sector (under Advanced Manufacturing). Alternatively, if you have views on the subject but don’t want to submit a full response yourself, please send comments through to amy.peace@chemicalsnorthwest.org.uk for inclusion in a general CNW response.
