You have until *Sunday 16th February* to complete Wealden District Council's Climate Green Paper survey.
Climate Change is a critical issue, and the choices we make now will impact our district’s environment, economy, and community for generations. We are facing more frequent and severe weather, including floods, droughts, and heatwaves, that affect our local landscape and daily lives. By participating in this survey you help ensure that our plans align with community priorities and that our actions benefit everyone, from enhancing local biodiversity to creating a fair and inclusive path to net zero emissions. The questions in the survey directly relate to our Climate Green Paper.
The paper itself is 105 pages long BUT you don't have to read it all before completing the survey. The questions in the survey are self explanatory and there are lots of opportunities to give your ideas, opinions and recommendations.
Settle down with a cup of tea and a biscuit, and spend a bit of time having YOUR say!

**Today we are lifting young birch trees from Kingstanding ready to be rehomed in gardens or on land in the local area. Trees will be available for a donation of between £5-£10, depending on the size, at Owlsbury Allotments in Crowborough tomorrow between 11am and 1.30pm**
**ALTHOUGH HADLOW DOWN ROAD IS CLOSED, THE ACCESS IS CLEAR TO OWLSBURY ALLOTMENTS**
Do you have a spot on land at your home or workplace where you'd like to see trees and more wildlife? If you do, then planting a few naturally grown birch trees could be the way to get there. Birch trees are a pioneer tree which can grow tall but without a dense canopy, creating a new ecosystem where a range of other plant and animal life can thrive. Their open canopy makes them suitable for even small gardens, as other plants below can still get the light that they need. They can be planted to line paths and driveways or used to create a woodland area to attract birds and woodland plants such as bluebells, wood anemones, wood sorrel, and other woodland loving wildlife.
Green Transition Crowborough have been working with the wonderful Sussex coast based The Birch Tree Project to provide a local collection hub for birch trees that need to be removed from the Sussex Police site at Kingstanding, as part of their commitment to managing the heathland. The saplings (2-10 years old) will be carefully dug up on Friday 6th December and will be available for "treecycling" from the car park at Owlsbury Allotments on Saturday 7th December from 11am - 1.30pm on a first come, first served basis. We suggest a cash/online donation of £5-£10 depending on the size of the tree. To give your tree the best possible chance of thriving you'll need to plant them as soon as possible after collection, keep the roots damp for the first couple of years and ideally stake or support them as they grow. Also bring with you a carrier bag for the roots to keep your vehicle clean.
With grateful thanks to The Birch Tree Project and Sussex Police for facilitating the rehoming of the trees, and to Crowborough Town Council for making space for us at Owlsbury Allotments, Hadlow Down Road, Crowborough, TN6 3RG. ... See MoreSee Less
