People's inquiry sessions
During a period of three months, the group have participated in a series of ten sessions led by independent facilitators, Shared Future to discuss topics ranging from the science behind climate change and practical options for how we can make a difference locally to home energy and the impact of industry, business and transport.
The 30 members of the Jury heard from a series of expert commentators to help them answer the question "What do we need to do in Warwick district to help address climate change by 2030."
