Bristol City Council's alleged the Environment and Sustainability Committee is a joke. With the Green Party in charge you might expect some action from it, however, as I have repeatedly posted during Labour and Green run councils, they do not care.
Money is what is most important to them. We have a Green council that refuses to even respond to emails, phone calls etc about wildlife issues or environmental questions.
I have reported (sorry I know it's all very predictable and people are probably sick and tired of me) that good healthy trees are being cut down for profit and very weak statements my Ed Plowden usually follow the "sadly unavoidable" line (ad nauseum). Hedgerows are being hacked up art the same time: nesting season for birds.
Speeding on even quiet city roads are taking their toll on our wildlife and I am not the only one who has suggested ways of stopping this. Labour city council actually dug up speed bumps in the City that were preventing accidents and wildlife deaths. As soon as it gets dark Ashton Drive becomes a speeders paradise despite the drive being a windy one. Two foxes killed at the quiet top end this year.
Ask and ask again and again and again but the money from developers speaks more than citizens who voted councillors in. To be the head of a council committee but then refuse to respond to questions because "You are not in my ward" is the casual cop out.
The harm done by the previous Labour council is nothing compared to what the Green run council is doing with its attempts to sell off green spaces, historical badger land and much more.
Remember that when it comes around to council elections.
