Liberal Democrat Conference in Brighton Reaffirms Commitment to Green Policies

September’s Liberal Democrat conference in Brighton was a great success.

And as well as being one of the best attended Lib Dem conferences ever, it reaffirmed the Party’s commitment to Green Policies and Environmental protection.

They featured among the Party’s 2017 election manifesto commitments:

In particular the Liberal Democrats aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 85% by 2050, down from the 1990 benchmark levels.

Herts County Councillor for Tring, Nick Hollinghurst, commented
