    MarineNews

    A very strong theme has emerged over last few weeks which is how we can draw lessons from the Covid-19 emergency about climate change in order to plan for our future. There are articles appearing daily from a wide range of sources on what we should be aiming for and the opportunity that the emergency presents. Here is a selection.  With the announced investment of £2 billion on cycle and pedestrian infrastructure the scale of the opportunity is very clear.

    Climate change Committee – UK’s coronavirus recovery should have green focus, Johnson urged: CCC set out six principles

    Mark Carney – We can’t self isolate from Climate change

    Business leaders – prioritise green growth  Four principles

    More than 60 CEOs of major businesses and environmental organisations have issued an open letter to the Prime Minister today, urging him to put nature and climate at the heart of the nation’s recovery effort as he prepares to lead the UK into a new normal.

    Guardian  ‘C40 Group of Cities around the world are already planning for life after Covid-19, with a series of environmental initiatives being rolled out from Bogotá to Barcelona to ensure public safety and bolster the fight against climate breakdown.’
