One youth group's effort writing to their MP...will you do the same?
URGENT ACTION!!! At the beginning of June, Parliament agreed that the Climate Change Bill should get a second reading, a chance for further debate and fine tuning the first law of its kind in the world.
This is a critical time. Our MPs have a last chance to push for a Bill that ensures that the UK plays its part in keeping global temperature rise below 2°C.
We've been asking for three ammendments to be made to the Climate Change Bill and the Government has agreed to one of them. The Bill now includes targets that will be reviewed each year, we've been calling them annual milestones. This is great news, but we're still calling for a stronger limit on the UK's emissions and the inclusion of our share of aviation and shipping emissions.
Join a concerted effort to get these last two ammendments made before the Bill is voted into law.
Please buy an energy saving lightbulb, open up the box it came in and then write a letter on it to your MP. We've pre-written a letter below if you want to copy it for guidance.
Once you've stuffed the box in an envelope send it off to the following address:
Your MP, House of Commons, London SW1A 0AA
