Sustainable Crediton Newsletter Issue 105

Welcome once again to our newsletter.

There is a sense of progress on several levels as local councils across Devon declare a climate emergency. That's the easy bit of course. What we now need to do is to engage with them to ensure the right policies are delivered to reflect this. We need to be having conversations with our local councilllors, as well as with our MP.

Nationally, Extinction Rebellion is gearing up for direct action in five cities across the UK during week beginning 15th July, including Bristol. Details on Facebook etc.

Here in Crediton, our bee project is taking shape: see under diary dates for the next get together on 17th July.

It all counts, it all matters.

Best wishes, John Craythorne, on behalf of Sustainable Crediton
