A new Environment Strategy for Kent

Growing the Garden of England: A strategy
for environment and economy in Kent – July 2011

This document has now been approved and is being published on 22 July 2011.

The 2011 strategy has three themes:

  • Living well within our environmental limits.
  • Rising to the climate change challenge.
  • Valuing our natural, historic and living environment.

It is one of a suite of strategies, developed in 2010, that supports a revised Vision for Kent to deliver social, economic and environmental wellbeing for Kent’s communities over the next 20 years. The 2011 strategy sets out how we will achieve a high-quality Kent environment, low carbon, resilient to climate change, and that has a thriving ‘green economy’ at its heart.
