Climate Change agenda and use of resources:

We support the sentiments expressed in these paragraphs. Rother District’s inhabitants are proportionally higher emitters of greenhouse gases than other areas in Sussex (see Defra’s figures). A combination of renewable energy including microgeneration projects such as wood biomass, solar and wind turbines or district heating systems), energy efficiency and more use of public transport (eg between Bexhill and Hastings) could lead to reduced emissions. A section on Renewable energy appears in many other strategies in the area.
