Tackling global warming key to keeping Dartmoor 'special'

RESTORING nature and tackling global warming are key to keeping Dartmoor “special”, the Prince of Wales has said.

The Duchy of Cornwall and Central Dartmoor Landscape Recovery Project (CDLR) launched a new project to “create a resilient environment” and meet the changing needs of Dartmoor’s communities.

In a foreword to the Landscape Vision project, the Prince of Wales said: “Dartmoor is a magnificent and complex ecosystem - the balance between nature and people has evolved for thousands of years to shape the landscape we recognise today.

“To keep Dartmoor special, we must respond to the twin challenges of global warming and the requirement to restore nature while ensuring the communities on Dartmoor can thrive.

“The Dartmoor Vision shows us what might be possible and how that might be achieved.

“It is bold and ambitious and something that I hope, by working together, can be delivered for not just the current generation but for generations to come.”
