This is a golden opportunity – the Bill is the only proposed legislation before the UK Parliament that ensures a comprehensive and joined-up approach to the climate emergency and nature crisis. The Climate and Nature Bill heads for its Second Reading on 24 January 2025. For the Bill to succeed, 102+ MPs need to support it. In brief, the Bill seeks to ensure that the UK meets its international commitments on climate and nature by 2030 by:
- Making sure the UK cuts emissions fairly and fully to stay within our share of the 1.5C carbon budget
- Making sure the UK not only halts but also reverses the destruction of nature by 2030
- Involving UK citizens in deciding the fairest way forward.
Add your support by writing to your MP asking them to back the campaign, or congratulating them if they already have – and encourage your church, friends, and family to write to their MP too.
Our actions make a difference
There are plenty of things we can be doing – not just as a church but individually at home.
