BioRegional ‘a development cannot be truly sustainable unless travel, food buying and waste are also addressed’

Communal ‘sign-up’ for a sustainable lifestyle

Community Project, nr Lewes District heating system - biomass woodchip burner with back-up oil boiler. 90% houses have woodburners Own water supply (bore hole) No formal car pooling system but several jointly owned cars and car sharing Lift rota for regular trips to station, school, college, local town.

Springhill Community

Threshold Centre, Gillingham

A community market garden and local food-sourcing Car-pooling and social activities to reduce car-use Shared energy systems: biomass (wood pellet) heating and photovoltaic electrical

Threshold Centre, Gillingham

BedZED Transport: 64% reduction in car mileage (compared to national av.). Water: 58% reduction in water use (compared to local av.). Waste: 60% waste recycled. Food: 86% of residents buy organic food. Community: residents know 20 neighbours by name on average
