Everyone seems to want something different from our rural land, and climate change is hotting up the arguments about food security, biofuels, flood storage and biodiversity. Different land uses conflict with each other.
Everyone seems to want something different from our rural land, and climate change is hotting up the arguments about food security, biofuels, flood storage and biodiversity. It seems as though any potential solutions just create more problems, as biofuels are painted as a threat to food supplies, research shows that home grown fruit and vegetables may produce more carbon than crops flown in from abroad and rural communities are vociferous in the face of suggestions that the countryside could be flooded in order to save towns. Can government policy and strategic planning really satisfy everyone’s demands?
