  ???? Balancing food security with green energy is crucial. I wrote about the need to use good quality land for growing food while advancing renewable energy in ways that protect local farms and livelihoods.

• 22 Oct 2024: Parliamentary Speech

  It is a pleasure to serve under your chairmanship, Sir Mark. Today is an opportunity to highlight the importance of food security in the face of the climate crisis, which is the biggest threat to food security. I believe that we must tackle climate change in a smart way that works best for our economy and communities. That is particularly true of areas where agriculture plays an important part in the economy and sustainability of our communities.

  A recent news report has shown that only 6% of vegetables used in school dinners in Wales are grown in Wales. As the climate crisis continues we should grow more locally, not decreasing the amount of food we grow on our land. I note that the UK Government have established a solar taskforce and have a target for delivering 70 GW of solar energy by 2035—more than quadrupling the current capacity of 15.5 GW. The development of solar farms is an issue that will be of great importance going forward. It is crucial that our energy security plans are co-ordinated with food security plans. That means thinking carefully about where the projects go and how they affect our economy, food security and community resilience.

  I totally agree; I think that solar on good agricultural land is a very lazy way of producing green energy. I will move on to tidal energy.

  I urge the Government to listen to my community. We need a smarter approach to large-scale solar farms that works with the needs of our communities and to safeguard food security. I am open to working with the Government to ensure that the transition to net zero is fast and fair to the people of Ynys Môn; will the Minister meet me to take that forward? There is a way where we harness our island’s full potential and maintain our long tradition of producing abundant food and energy in harmony.

  Full debate: Large-scale Energy Projects and Food Security

  I am glad that we have had the conversation. I want this debate to be a mature one where we balance the effects of the climate crisis and the crisis that we face in food production and the cost of producing that food.

  Rhaid i brosiectau ynni gwyrdd, ac unrhyw ddatblygiadau mawr, fod o fudd uniongyrchol i gymunedau lleol. Mae pobl Môn yn haeddu ei chyfran deg! Renewable energy projects, and any large developments, must benefit local communities directly. People of Môn deserve their fair share! https://x.com/llinos_medi/status/1846492878035451957/video/1 [Source]

  Minimal jobs and minimal economic benefit. Our island needs renewable energy that works with our communities, not against them.

  Investment in carbon capture is welcome, but not at the expense of proven clean energy. Last month, renewable energy auctions awarded Wales just 1.63% of funds. We need urgent investment in green jobs and infrastructure to hit our 2030 climate goals. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/oct/04/labour-to-commit-almost-22bn-to-fund-carbon-capture-and-storage-projects?CMP=share_btn_url [Source]

  The latest contracts for difference auction for renewable energy showed that Wales received only 1.63% of the total auction allocation. We were promised a Labour Government in Westminster working with a Labour Government in Wales would benefit Wales. This is yet to be seen. https://twitter.com/llinos_medi/status/1831750553451557354/video/1 [Source]

  It makes no sense that profits from renewable energy projects are funnelled out of poor coastal communities to fund the refurbishment of Buckingham Palace. Wealth from our natural resources should be invested in our people and communities. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/article/2024/jul/24/king-to-receive-extra-45m-of-public-money-as-crown-estate-income-soars [Source]

  Thanks to @Plaid_Cymru , Wales has a genuinely publicly owned energy company based here in Ynys Môn, which will expand community-owned renewable energy generation across Wales. 2/3 [Source]

  I can’t believe it’s taken so long for the Labour leader to visit #YnysMôn given the potential here to deliver the green energy required to reduce bills and boost our energy security. 2/4 [Source]
