Futures Forum: Climate Week in Sidmouth: The Climate Variety Show >>> Friday 11th March
The evening will showcase projects in the area - including those being carried out by Clinton Devon Estates who will be at the Friday 11th event to demonstrate issues from areas such as renewables, forestry, farming and conservation.
All these form part of CDE's commitment to sustainability, including the challenges faced by climate change:
Welcome - Clinton Devon Estates
One project CDE have been working on is the Lower Otter Restoration Project:
River Otter Restoration Project
The River Otter Estuary covers an area of 33 hectares, and along with the cliffs of Otterton Point is designated a site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) on account of the fine saltmarsh habitat supported and adjacent Triassic sandstone rocks of considerable paleontological interest.
The River Otter Project is in the earliest phase of development and still just a concept. Many feasibility studies and much consultation need to be undertaken to understand if the project is socially, economically and environmentally worthwhile. In particular the benefits and disbenefits resulting from the project to all stakeholders need to be clarified and suitable partnerships and governance developed. Its anticipated key aims are:
- Managed realignment and naturalising of an iconic river through reconnection to its floodplain
