An open public meeting on Thursday 26th October – St Mary Magdalene Church, Woodstock – Doors open 6.45pm for 7.00pm prompt start xxxxxxxxxx.
A ‘Question-Time’ format to discuss the proposed Botley West Solar Farm in the light of climate change. Following short presentations the focus of the evening will be on questions from the audience.
Learn from our panel and explore the current thinking on the environment, solar energy and farming
And most importantly for you to ask the questions you may still have.
With many worried that not enough is being done to mitigate the effects of climate change, we feel strongly that local residents should have the opportunity to hear and participate in an inclusive and open discussion. We want the audience to feel comfortable and able to ask questions and be allowed to come to their own conclusions. Young people are particularly welcome and encouraged to attend as we feel they were under-represented at previous meetings.

Low Carbon Heating
A Step along the Road to Zero Carbon – by Darrell Marchand
Graham Brown has written about solar energy and how we can incorporate this into our homes to generate zero-carbon electricity to power our lights and appliances.
The other main source of carbon emissions from our homes is from the generation of heat and hot water. In this part of the country, primarily this comes from burning natural gas in boilers. Natural gas is a carbon fuel – less carbon intensive than oil or coal, but a carbon fuel nonetheless. If there is any chance of meeting the Government’s target of achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050, we simply have to move away from this fuel source for heating.

What is the community woodland?
Our woodland and orchard is looking better than ever. Since the first trees were planted in the Autumn of 2010 the trees have steadily matured and with the grass drives and open glades have created a pleasant place for a stroll. We have two picnic benches so there are places to sit and contemplate nature or just take the weight of your feet. Do take a moment to come and see the woodland for yourself. But where is the woodland? It’s as you leave Woodstock, on the main road heading for Chippy, just past the end of the 30 mph speed limit, on the left. There’s a notice board a small gate and you’re there. Or you can find it from this map.
