Richard Signs Woodland Trust Pledge
March 21, 2010 10:58 AM
Richard Burt today signed the Woodland Trust General Election pledge, committing to work for the expansion of native woodland cover during the course of the next parliament.
Richard said: "I believe that creating new woods and planting trees is a priority if we are to tackle challenges such as climate change, wildlife loss, improving public health - both physical and mental - and shaping places where people want to live, work and spend leisure time in this beautiful part of Britain."
The Woodland Trust Pledge
I will promote the creation of new native woods and trees by:
1. Committing to working for the expansion of native woodland cover throughout the duration of the next Parliament.
2. Contacting my party leader and asking them to adopt the Woodland Trust's manifesto as a basis for expanding, enhancing and protecting the natural environment.
3. Ensuring that native woods and trees are high on the agenda at the election by publicising my support for the Woodland Trust's manifesto
