Here's something you can do that will only take five to ten minutes.

Caroline Lucas has tabled a motion in Parliament, calling for a UK-wide climate emergency. [It's about time they caught up with Helston!] You can find it here: edm.parliament.uk/early-day-motion/52682/ukwide-climate-emergency

Will you contact your MP to ask them to sign Caroline's climate emergency motion? You will remember the pitiful display in Parliament a few weeks ago when fewer than 10% of MP's turned up for a climate debate, the first in the main chamber for over two years. They need to do better!

We need Parliament to declare a climate emergency, and push to rapidly decarbonise the UK. And we need to release funding to local authorities (like Cornwall Council, which has already declared) so that they can take bold climate action.

All you need to do is write a quick email to your MP and tell them how important it is to support this Early Day Motion. Tell them how urgent it is we act to prevent climate breakdown, and show leadership in moving to a new economy.

If you're in the Helston area, your MP is probably Derek Thomas, in which case you can email him at derek.thomas.mp@parliament.uk. If you're not sure who your MP is, an easy way of finding out and communicating with them is at WriteToThem (link below) - all you need is your post code. ... See MoreSee Less
