Commenting on the upcoming event, Portsmouth South MP Stephen Morgan said:
“I’m delighted to be bringing together an expert panel for local people to learn more about environmental issues and share their views.
“For the good of our health and environment, it is vital we continue to take action to tackle dirty air in Portsmouth.
“I’m excited to speak with Portsmouth people on this issue this Saturday to hear their views and ideas for how we can make Portsmouth’s air cleaner for the benefit of everyone in our city.”
Mr Morgan has vowed to take the concerns raised at the event to Westminster while continuing to do what he can locally to address environmental issues in Portsmouth.
Protecting Portsmouth’s precious environment is a top priority for Mr Morgan. He recently welcomed Environment Secretary Steve Reed to Portsmouth to discuss government plans to tackle sewage pollution and bring green jobs to Portsmouth.
