Climate and ecology are inextricably linked. Both are now in great peril. If we do not tackle those challenges with co-ordinated efforts then we stand far less chance of solving either of them. This holistic approach forms the basis of the Climate and Ecological Emergency Bill, recently tabled in the UK Parliament by the MP Caroline Lucas. The paper is a blueprint for how all national governments will need to legislate in the coming years. And it contains clauses that ensure ordinary folks like you and me can be fully involved in the decision making process.

About the CEE Bill Alliance

The CEE Bill Alliance campaign aims to create the magnitude of grassroots' momentum that will activate/force the levers of government power to legislate for dual emergency climate- nature legislation through the CEE Bill. The CEE Bill - developed in collaboration with experts across the science and legal disciplines - provides the framework and principles, and an embedded citizens' assembly, to produce a climate-nature law fit to address our 21st century planetary crisis.
You can be part of making this Bill law by signing up to support the campaign and writing to your MP and councillors.
