The Climate & Ecological Emergency Bill

Extinction Rebellion (XR UK) are asking people to take action on 26th March to mark the CEE (Climate & Ecological Emergency) Bill. 

The Bill's second reading in Parliament was due on 26th March but has been cancelled due to Covid. The government continues to stifle opportunities for Parliament to discuss real solutions to the climate & nature crisis.

XR UK's plan is to mark the (non-)occasion with UK-wide banner drops on the 26th March. And a Twitter storm.

Briefing document here: CEC Bill

There’s still time (they say) to make a banner and get organised. 

XR UK ask people to upload their banner drop location (here) and think about what message they want to tweet their MP.

Climate & Biodiversity

Climate & Biodiversity

There was never a more important time than this. Climate warming has begun to run away and the natural world is under threat from land use, fishing, agriculture and industry.

Driving much of this environmental damage are the fossil fuels we have come to rely on for transport and heating. Added to this, international trade & consumption - i.e. buying stuff - are destroying the very ecosystems we depend on to balance and sustain the earth.

The situation is critical. We have to do something.

 

The three demands of Extinction Rebellion are key:

• Tell the Truth
• Act Now
• Involve Everyone

 

There are things we can do. 

 

 

We can work together to make a real difference.
