As the Climate Change Cabinet Member, Claire Malcomson led the Liberal Democrat Administration's Motion in the Council Chamber, working cross party to Declare an Ecology Emergency. MVDC is one of only 15% of councils to do this and is proud to spearhead this initiative.
As your Climate Change Cabinet Member, I am making sure lots is going on: The 24th September is the first day of The Great Big Green Week, which runs until 2nd October.

Welcome to my second Blog. These are specially to keep you up to date with what I am doing as the Climate Change Member for Mole Valley.
