Climate change is an issue of great importance to Rother District as it is a coastal district and areas of floodplain. However adapting and mitigating against climate change brings some opportunities. In this district there is particular opportunity to mitigate the impacts using renewable energy (wood biomass, solar energy, small hydropower plants and wind). The woodland cover in the district and rural nature means that is its particularly well situated to support development of woodfuel for local and district heating systems.
