A two-month public consultation on the draft Devon, Cornwall and Isles of Scilly climate adaptation strategy which will attempt to minimise the impact of climate change on the South West peninsula only received just over 200 responses from the 1.75 million people who live in the region.
Publication of a revised, final version of the plan is expected in August before partnership organisations will be invited to endorse it during the autumn, four and a half years after Devon County Council convened the Devon Climate Emergency Response Group to “act now to tackle [the] climate emergency”.
