Confused by town planning? Can't see the benefits? What exactly is town planning?
In this pilot episode of the Royal Town Planning Institute's Planning Podcast, we take a look at how a strong planning system can have a positive impact on all of our lives.
We explore the effect of town planning on combatting climate change, and look at planning's involvement in green energy and low-carbon transport.
We also explore how town planning can make us all happier and healthier through quality housing and the provision of trees and green spaces - a topic that has come to the fore during the Covid-19 pandemic.
And what of planning permission? We learn why the need to get planning permission should actually be seen as a positive and hear how a strong planning enforcement system has led to the brick-by-brick rebuilding of a pub in west London.
