Representation Summary:

Climate Change
19. CPRE Bedfordshire commented in response to the Local Plan consultation of 2021 that we would like to see the plan go beyond general statements of intention to work towards making Bedford a carbon neutral borough and build in some stronger and more specific targets in support of this objective.
20. The expanded consideration of these issues in the Submission Draft are very welcome. Policy DS1(S) Resources and climate change sets out a number of ways in which development must support a move towards carbon neutrality.
