Respondent: Medway Council Climate Response Team

Representation Summary:

Consider expanding on the sentence “Build on existing strengths and expertise, such as engineering, energy and creative industries, and raise the profile of key sectors, to attract and develop the skills and jobs of the future required to enable the vision for example, skills to enable low carbon resilient developments£.
We welcome the inclusion of green tourism as a consideration. Noting, however, that tourism itself is likely to be adversely affected by the impacts of climate change. For example, shifting of wildlife habitats.
