On The Abundance Agenda this week:
We dig into the recommendations of the government’s New Town taskforce – and explore the twelve locations that have been selected for a new generation of New Towns.
Martin takes the Guardian’s NIMBY nonsense to task – and wonders if nature activists actually know what nature is.
Plus we speak to Kane Emerson about the plan for the new town of Tempsford – and how it could be under construction by the end of this Parliament.
The New Town Taskforce’s full report is here.
Kane’s paper on the case of Tempsford is here.
The maddening Guardian ‘Green to Grey’ piece is here.
James’s piece on the ‘NIMBY charter’ is here (and the short piece on HIGNFY is here).
Martin’s newsletter is here – he’ll be dropping something later this week.
Don’t forget to tell your friends about the pod – and leave us a nice review on Apple Podcasts!
The Abundance Agenda is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and hopefully wherever you get your podcasts!
