Last night at a meeting of the Climate Change Committee, Mayor Dave Hodgson voted to confirm the expansion of the successful Bugs and Bees Project to help save the bees and boost biodiversity across the Borough. Commenting after the meeting, Mayor Dave said "The success of this project has been down to our residents and council staff who have worked together to find suitable locations for rewilding and relaxed grass cutting. Bees are vital to our ecosystems and we must work to protect them. Not only will this improve biodiversity across the Borough, less mowing will mean a further reduction in carbon emissions - which is something we are always striving to do."
