SUMMARY:Online Event: Stanground Closed Landfill Solar Farm
DESCRIPTION:At the forefront of renewable energy investment\, Cambridgeshire County Council is seeking permission to build a 2.7 MW solar farm and battery energy storage system in Stanground. The site is situated between the A1139 Fletton Parkway\, Stanham Way and the A605 in the south of Peterborough. \nCambridgeshire County Council’s vision is to deliver net zero carbon emissions for the region by 2050. As part of this\, there is the opportunity to look at using some of its assets to produce and store electricity\, in order to support the Government’s decarbonisation goals\, whilst simultaneously generating revenues. \nThe proposed location is an old landfill site that was formally closed in 1992. It is Cambridgeshire County Council-owned land\, and the development work would be of no cost to Peterborough City Council or its residents. Sales of electricity and provision of services to the grid would generate revenue for the continued delivery and development of frontline services. \nThis pioneering use of the site\, turning it into an active energy generation centre\, is the first of its kind in the East of England and has the potential to be replicated on other similar sites across the region. \nThe Stanground site would generate significant amounts of renewable electricity – enough to meet the demand of over 700 houses. Electricity would be used to supply energy into the electricity grid or to large local businesses\, and to charge a battery energy storage system on site. The battery would provide electricity storage capacity supporting a more resilient network by providing grid stability and energy balancing services. \n“It is estimated that the solar farm would save around 6\,500 tonnes of carbon over its lifetime\,” explains Councillor Josh Schumann. “Utilising an old landfill site in this way is really quite innovative and has the potential to be replicated elsewhere\, creating a source of green and clean energy for the future.” \nFrom April to June\, Cambridgeshire County Council is planning a social media campaign\, survey and series of online events\, working with project partner PECT. The aim is to offer opportunities for local residents and businesses to learn more about the project and to feedback on proposals for the 2.7 MW solar farm and battery energy storage system ahead of a full planning application being submitted. \nMembers of the public can join virtual Zoom events to hear more about the Stanground Closed Landfill Solar Farm scheme on: \n\n20th May at 6pm (join via https://zoom.us/j/385770627)\n3rd June at 6pm (join via https://zoom.us/j/153161490)\n17th June at 6pm (join via https://zoom.us/j/180221249)\n\nFor further details\, please email mlei@cambridgeshire.gov.uk or visit www.mlei.co.uk\, where there is also a survey for local residents to feedback with their thoughts about the project. \n

SUMMARY:Incredible Edible Todmodern: the power of small actions
DESCRIPTION:Please check with the event organiser that this event is going ahead prior to setting off!\nFree event\, limited availability. \nMary Clear MBE\, chairperson of Incredible Edible Todmorden and co founder of an idea that has rooted across the world\, will describe how a group of volunteers used food and growing as a lever to make a kinder world\, achieving more than ever thought possible and having oodles of fun in the process. \nThe event is free to attend\, doors & bar open at 7pm but please reserve your seat in advance. It is one of a series called the OWL talks – part of the Oundle Waste Less project organised by Transition Oundle – which aim to promote discussions about current thinking around the shift towards lower carbon and more ‘eco’ lifestyles. Topics covered include decluttering\, sustainable fashion\, carbon offsetting\, Closing The Loop (the circular economy) with more events in the pipeline. \nSupported by Nene Living\, Village Connect and Transition Oundle. Funded by National Lottery Fund and East Northamptonshire Resource Management Fund. \nKeep an eye out for other events here!

SUMMARY:What does an Outdoor Curriculum look like - Primary
DESCRIPTION:With children starting to return to their classrooms and indoor space being limited\, now is the time for education to look towards new ways of enabling learning to take place. \nIf the current pandemic has taught us anything\, it is that our natural space holds a wealth of resource and opportunity\, which is ideal for our young people to engage with and learn from. There are so many ways that schools\, both primary and secondary\, can do this whilst continuing to deliver the curriculum as part of everyday school life. \nThat is why PECT and Nene Park Trust are working together to provide two webinars\, asking the question ‘What does an Outdoor Curriculum look like?’ These FREE sessions will provide an insight into how schools can integrate their outdoors as part of and not in addition to what they already do\, along with details on how we can support you in achieving your aims. At the end of each session there will also be the opportunity to ask questions and have a more informal conversation. \nIf you would like to take part\, please register for a space on the links below. Spaces are limited and will be on a first come first served basis.

SUMMARY:The Time is Now Virtual Lobby
DESCRIPTION:On 30 June The Climate Coalition is bringing everyone together for a virtual lobby\, inviting you\, and thousands of others to ask MPs to put people\, climate and nature at the heart of our nation’s recovery. \nThe UK is at a turning point. As we build back from the current health crisis\, we have the opportunity to rebuild a resilient economy that benefits everyone in society and tackle climate change and nature’s decline\, creating jobs and protecting the most vulnerable in the UK and around the world. Or we can let the moment for change pass us by\, go back to old ways and wait for new crises to hit. \nUsing our voices to call for action is more important than ever. Have a virtual cup of tea with your MP on Tuesday 30 June and tell them that #TheTimeIsNow to put a healthy\, greener\, fairer future at the heart of plans to rebuild from the Coronavirus crisis. \nBe part of history. Sign up to be part of the first ever virtual lobby for climate\, nature and people. Click here for details.
