*London Nature Recovery Interactive Map
The Greater London Authority (GLA) has launched an interactive mapping tool for Londoners to tell us where action to improve nature should be prioritised. The GLA will use the map, alongside other inputs, to set out the priorities for London’s nature in the London Local Nature Recovery Strategy (LNRS), which is due to be published in Summer 2025.
You can access and add your suggestions to the interactive map here: LNRS Interactive Map (arcgis.com)
This interactive map is open to all organisations and individuals across London, so please share this with your friends, colleagues, family and communities living and working in Greater London. The map will be open for input until 23:59 on Wednesday 2nd October.
If you have any questions regarding the interactive map, please email biodiversity@london.gov.uk
OK, if you choose Richmond Park for this 'recovery'....
ReplyDeleteBut big trouble overall for London public green spaces as Brownfield land is not defined in the National Planning Policy Framework for planning policy in England. Instead it's see Previously Developed Land and PDL is defined not BL which is NPPF kept never defined. Clever pro-developer stuff, so clever in fact that even Labours current redrafting of the NPPF misses this anti-social/ anti- green spaces near home for all communities harsh political sleight of hand.
Another problem is that decision-makers and state administrators don't see any park built after 1900 (so that's parks built in the Labour era) as being worthy of being park protected and invested in, no matter what the population growth is these days being car-free housing towered all around them.
For current urban administrators Labour when in power always built parks in the wrong and not the right places of London.
Conservation of all post 1900 built parks and green spaces in London by Kier Starmer Labour anyone?
If you examine at this map, South Kilburn has no nature to recover for authorities, funders and administrators. Its mapped as being all grey land, yet a dusk you see bats and fox's in the central park here. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteDitto South Kilburn outer London located having no public rights of way and definitive statement legally put in place either. Alarming for residents of a car-free housing tall building population growth zoned with no tall building masterplan.
