Brown agrees At a global average of two degrees or more the consequences – for agricultural productivity, water stress, ecosystems and human health – become potentially devastating. March 2005 “ “

… and Blair too? Climate change is… the world’s greatest environmental challenge … so far reaching in its impact and irreversible in its destructive power, that it alters radically human existence September 2004 “ “

Emissions out of control Since 1997 up by 5.5%

Climate Change Bill sets an annual target for cuts in carbon dioxide emissions – three per cent every year requires annual reports on progress to Parliament holds Government to account if they fall behind

80% by 2050

Three per cent per year … 6 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide emitted

… starting now! 10 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide emitted

Annual reports

We’ve done this before

Is the Government doing enough about climate change? 73% NO NOP survey for Friends of the Earth. May 2005

?

What can I do? 1.Sign our petition at 2.Ask your MP to support our Climate Change Bill: complete a postcard, write them a letter, or through 3.Spread the word
