Consultation begins on Scotland's first 'Climate Change Park'
The public has been invited to air their views on plans to develop Hazlehead Park near Aberdeen into the country's first Climate Change Park.
The initiative is run by Greenspace Scotland and aims to help park managers take practical steps to adapt the design and management of parks to maximise climate change benefits.
Plans include grass cutting regimes, creating wildflower meadows or planting trees, to green roofs for park buildings and water management schemes.
Aberdeen City Council Environment Manager Steven Shaw said: "The idea behind the Climate Change Park scheme is to explore opportunities available to adjust the design and management of Hazlehead Park to maximise climate change benefits. In order to do this we want to have as much input as possible and that includes the input of park users and the local community."
"This is a fantastic opportunity for Aberdeen City Council and Hazlehead Park to lead the way on climate change action for parks and is the first step in creating climate-proof park management plans across the authority.
