•   Woodland Opportunity Mapping for the Rockingham Forest

  A woodland opportunity map was begun in 2013 with the aim of identifying priority locations for the creation of new woodland, and also to highlight areas where woodland creation would be detrimental. The first phase of the map prioritises the areas surrounding and linking existing woodlands, as the expansion and connecting of woodlands is likely to have the greatest benefits for biodiversity, landscape character and recreation. More detail is available in the PDF which is available to download. The maps can be viewed at http://maps.northamptonshire.gov.uk   [ 1MB ]

  The Climate Challenge, described in more detail in this document, is RNRP’s innovative offer to the Government, and to partners, to link together the two key, but presently separate, national initiatives on Climate Change. The proposal is that RNRP would use an allocation from Green Taxes that the government will levy on business and individuals on energy consumption beyond their allowances, to develop and implement environmental initiatives that will also provide tangible social and economic benefits.   [ 4MB ]
