Lee Rowley MP: support the CEE (Climate) Bill for NE Derbyshire

Support The Climate and Ecological Emergency Bill at its 2nd Reading on 12th March 2021

Why is this important?

"We are at a unique stage in our history. The future of humanity and indeed, all life on earth, now depends on us" - David Attenborough

Why do we need this bill? We are facing an unprecedented climate crisis and the UK government simply isn’t doing enough. We know that we are in an emergency, the next 10 years are critical to keeping global temperatures at a safe level, and we want the government to take immediate and urgent action.

The Climate and Ecological Emergency bill is an alliance bill that has been written by scientists, lawyers and activists; it has been proposed in parliament by Caroline Lucas MP and is gathering support from a broad range of campaign groups, businesses, charities and individuals.

The key points contained in the bill are:

* Ensure the UK reduces greenhouse gas emissions in line with its legal obligations to limit global heating to 1.5°C
* Protect and restore woodlands, wetlands and the wider natural world
* Set up an assembly to involve people from all parts of the UK to develop a strategy to deal with the climate emergency.

We need the support of as many MPs as possible from all political parties. Please sign this petition asking Lee Rowley MP to support and vote for the Climate and Ecological Emergency Bill when it returns to the House of Commons on 12th March 2021
