Cars - Their impact on wildlife and what we can do about it
We all know that motor vehicles are one of the many causes of climate change, but did you know that they're also a significant cause of the biodiversity crisis?
On 25th Feb, Nick Morphet (County Councillor for Humshaugh and leader of Northumberland County Council's Green Party group) will tell us about all of the other ways that motor vehicles harm wildlife.
As well as the more obvious topics such as roadkill, he'll cover topics such as habitat and population fragmentation and noise, light, chemical and particulate pollution. Nick will suggest practical ways that we can reduce the damage that our cars do to wildlife. As well as questions there will be a short discussion and a free locally sourced sustainable lunch (donations welcome).
