Sustainable in Plaid Cymru ???

The Labour Assembly Government are working hard to make us face the condequences of our unsustainable lifestyle. Plaid Cymru often try to shoult louder about their sustainability credentials, but some of us have noted the suuden about turn by Rhodri Glyn Tomos when it comes to flood risk in his own patch.

As I earn my bread and butter as a planning officer I understand the challenges set by the policy on flood risk. In North Wales places like Conwy and Denbighsire face huge issues as do some parts of Arfon. In the coming years, and if we are to plan to mitigate the effects of climate change, we could see wide spread patterns of new development. Certainly food for thought and I wonder what the Autumn and Winter stoms will bring ? Meanwhile Rhodri should present his evidence to the Environment Agency so they csan review their advice.
