A number of
constituents have sent me a campaign email regarding the climate change.
Imperative in the
debate around climate change is that political parties, government and councils
set out plans to address climate change with honest and realistic targets. The
government has done just that with ambitious yet realistic plans to see the
economy become carbon neutral by 2050. It will be a real challenge but I
believe achievable. That is far better than setting unrealistic dates that
cannot be achieved that are then abandoned – as with the Labour Party’s recent
u turn.
The department
for environment, food and rural affairs has set out the actions and
achievements I believe you will be interested in. you can read it here:
If I am honoured with
re-election, I will be sure to continue my work supporting Ocean
environmental groups both locally and in Parliament tackling plastic pollution
and many other matters. It was also a pleasure to host a Green Peace event last
June, in Parliament. It was well attended and I will continue to support much
of their work.
