Message from Friends of the Earth
The Government has published a consultation on its Climate Change Bill. This Bill, if passed, will make emission reduction targets legally binding. This is great news and a campaign victory for Friends of the Earth’s ‘The Big Ask’ campaign.However, the Bill is not perfect and needs to be improved. In particular, the Bill does not include rapidly growing emissions from international aviation and shipping. Research has shown that, without tackling emissions from aviation, the Government’s climate targets could be impossible to meet.Please take action and tell the Government that the Bill must include aviation and shipping. Click here and put your views into the consultation.
