Episode notes
This podcast episode is an insight into the carbon reduction plans of one of the UK’s largest National Park Authorities (NPA).
The Yorkshire Dales National Park’s ambitious plans aim to transform the region’s buildings, transport and land management, almost eliminating all CO2 emissions by 2030.
Ruth Chambers interviews David Butterworth, chief executive of the national park about the plan, why it will be important to transfer more power and resources from central government to local regions and how national parks can be part of the post Covid-19 solution for a better society.
