Crome – James Killbery
I have had a career in community work, and then in IT, in both public sector and commercial organisations, and then I ran an antiques centre for ten years. I’ve retired now, and before lockdown was volunteering with FareShares. I moved to Norwich in 2021 to be nearer friends and family.
I think the pandemic has taught us that when we want people to do the right thing, it has to be made affordable for everyone to do it. And moving to a carbon zero economy will not be cheap (otherwise we’d be there already) This is why I support the Green Party’s commitment to a Universal Basic Income. Locally we should only allow the building houses that meet PassivHouse standards with carbon free heating systems. and solar power generation. We should be using the councils economic position to develop schemes that make it affordable and cost effective for people in existing houses to fully insulate their homes and install solar panels.
