I was pleased to see a report on the internet recently saying that over 100 environmentally friendly houses are to be built in Fenland.
Not only that, but the builders will be trialling different building methods so scientists can measure the environmental impact of each construction method used and the energy efficiency of each building. This information will then be used to help other developers reduce the impact of their work on the environment.
Would that there were more initiatives like this!
