THEY DON’T COME ANY MORE HEAVYWEIGHT than Sir John Houghton, former Chair of the IPCC. 
This man is one of the authorities on climate change – and he came to Stretton! Sir John gave an illustrated talk entitled “Funny Weather We’re Having, Isn’t It?” and answered questions; his basic message was “we have the technology – just get on with it!”
After the Team Stretton entry at the Tour de Presteigne Electric Bike Bonanza on 9th and 10th May 09 we had the Second Annual Duck Race in Carding Mill Valley in association with the National Trust. In June we had an orienteering event, also in conjunction with the National Trust, and in July the Stretton Green Festival,starting with The Age of Stupid on 29 June, A Day in the Square on July 4th and that very same evening the highlight of the week, a live and 
unplugged performance by eco-folk sensation Seize the Day (ably supported by local duo Emma and the Professor) performing at Rushbury Village Hall.
