Putting people and the environment first.
The Green Party in Cambridgeshire has seen a radical shift in local government thinking. From waste disposal to recycling initiatives and ecosystems created out of waste land & brown fields reclaimed. From Safer Cycling and dedicated bus & cycle lanes to modern public transport, lower emissions and car free city days.
______
The South Cambs Green Party will continue to work for local people, supporting their priorities and will also work to increase the number of Green Councillors to make this happen.
Greens have consistently argued the need for measured housing development. New housing projects need to be away from Green Belt and the housing industry encouraged to recover brown sites.
The Green-Belt and Rural villages need to be protected from overdevelopment. Councils and developers should not sacrifice gardens, green spaces or even school playing fields for development nor for short term financial reasons.
It is the infrastructure, the quality of housing, public transport & public spaces, which determines how sucessful a society is with dealing with its own progress as the demands, first by (old) industries and now new industries and services - for more housing, new runways and new motorways have on our countryside.
______
The Green Party aims to achieve their goals by fielding more candidates, who share our vision of a greener future for Cambridgeshire Residents: all passing visitors, EU citizens, guest workers, students, and all our short & long term residents alike
