We are fortunate to live in one of the most fantastic natural environments in the UK. Cornwall has been called the Green Peninsula and in many ways we do live up to that tag.

We lead the way through the many sustainable enterprises that provide a shining example of corporate responsibility. But we have a long way to go to truly call ourselves a green peninsula.

It is easy to think climate change is somebody else’s responsibility, but we all have our part to play if we are to slow down and reverse the destruction of our planet. Wouldn’t it be great if Cornwall can lead the way?

Cornwall Council’s enquiry into how the Council can respond to climate change offers a fantastic opportunity to provide good quality, sustainable jobs for local people whilst protecting our environment for future generations.

I will do everything I can to support the council in fighting climate change. If you agree - please support my Green Deal by signing my petition.

Count me in.

I support Tim's Green Deal for Cornwall and will support Cornwall Council's efforts to protect our wonderful environment.
