Greater Cambridge Local Plan Issues & Options 2020

This is ' Our Ideal Cambridgeshire' poster we made on 8th February (attached) explaining what we, as the next generation, want to see happen for the future in our community. We are a child led group ,who want to save the environment so we can have better futures, called HIYEC ( Histon and Impington Youth Eco Council ). We heard about the Greater Cambridgeshire Local Plan and wanted to have an input on how our area is run. ' Our Ideal Cambridgeshire' poster includes: • Green energy for all vehicles including emergency vehicles, taxi / car hire and public transport • Under 18's and students free on public transport • More biodiversity in Cambridgeshire's green spaces including encouraging a wide spread of animals especially insects and bees • Recycled water in car washes • Public gyms that power electricity when people exercise • More electric car charging stations to encourage people to get electric cars • For solar power / panels to be cheaper and more accessible • More school funding for environmental things eg. solar power • For our roads to be safer and to have new zebra crossings ( places for them could include Station Rd, Impington lane, outside Impington Village College, outside Histon Tesco's ) • Eco cafe - vegetarian, vegan, sustainable etc... • Affordable accommodation just in general and on top of shops • Encouraging charity shops and small businesses ( keeping rent down etc... ) • Solar powered bins like in Cromer • More community gardens for everyone ( social inclusion ) • Eco newsletter containing more events and ideas for the community • More eco - friendly events Attached are our pictures of the poster. Thank you for taking our ideas and input on your plan,
