Counting on … day 198

23rd October 2024

Where do we start in addressing the climate and biodiversity crises?

In the UK we can support with the CAN Bill, a private members bill with cross party support, that  aims to establish “a new UK law that addresses the full extent of the climate and nature crisis in line with the most up-to-date science. The Bill is the only proposed legislation before the UK Parliament that ensures a comprehensive and joined-up approach to the emergency.” (1)

You can both sign up as a supporter – https://action.zerohour.uk/join

And write to your MP asking them to support the Bill. It is due a second reading 24th January when it needs the support of 102 MPs (being a Friday this requires a bit more commitment from MPs who might prefer to leave early for their constituencies) – https://action.zerohour.uk/
