Respondent: Climate Action Menston

Climate Action Menston supports the Environmental Policy but it does not go far enough, requiring more positive wording indicating the need to reach zero carbon emissions, and stronger support for renewables.
Housing Standards need to insist on net zero or negative emission dwellings now, or costly, invasive refurbishment will be needed within a decade. We agree that the design of buildings, using solar gain and passive house approaches with high levels of insulation are vital.
