abstract
  • Prior to the launch of a Sustainable Development Commission report on tidal power, The Wildlife Trusts challenges the government to commit not only to mitigation - reducing carbon emissions – but also to adaptation - helping wildlife and people cope with inevitable climate change. The Wildlife Trusts propose a series of key tests for any renewable energy proposal, including all tidal power proposals, looking at both mitigation and adaptation: “Our tests go further than routine environmental assessments at present. We believe this is crucial if we are to see truly sustainable development. Any proposal for cutting carbon emissions through tidal power is completely counter-productive if it costs us more than it saves by damaging the natural habitats and processes which can help us tackle climate change.” Brian Eversham, The Wildlife Trusts.
