We’re not just committed to net zero – we’re investing to ensure our region is at the forefront of the green growth transition.     We're helping tackle climate change by attracting investment in new, low carbon energy and sustainable industries as we want the region to capitalise on the huge opportunities available to our economy:     ✅ We can act as a catalyst for low carbon energy production at Ratcliffe Power Station   ✅ We’re a lead partner in East Midlands Hydrogen, the UK’s largest inland hydrogen cluster  ✅ We’re working with University of Nottingham and Loughborough University on a Zero Carbon Innovation Centre, driving new decarbonisation solutions    ✅ We’re supporting the decarbonisation of freight and logistics through the work of Maritime Transport Ltd's rail freight terminal, which will take thousands more lorries off the roads.   ✅ We're leading the Advisory Board of the East Midlands Airport Green Futures study, exploring pathways for decarbonisation of activities in and around the UKs largest dedicated air cargo operation.    We’ll be making an announcement soon about a new initiative which will help develop new skills for the clean energy future – meaning netzero becomes an opportunity for people and businesses. #EastMidlands #GreenGrowth #NetZero #GreenEnergy #Investment

Some of this you'll do.as a result of destroying farmland. Green initiative starts at inception. You can't ignore what you destroy and then profess to be tackling climate change. It's #greenwashing. You believe your own hype. What of your "green corridor " that's not taking lorries off the road?

This is what you destroy for more warehousing and then use every green cliché to justify it! It's all done in your name.
