Rejected petition Declare a Climate Emergency and take Immediate Action to save our Home
Rejected on
Mankind currently sits on the edge of catastrophe. We have faced no greater threat to our civilisation and our basic survival, than we do today. We must take action.
Governments of the world must take immediate action to protect our world. Climate change is no longer the future, it is now.
Planet Earth is the only home we’ve ever known and it needs us now more than ever. Humans have started this, and humans need to fix it: whatever it takes. Time is up.
Rising temperatures and unimaginable levels of pollution in our atmosphere and oceans, is threatening our natural world, and our civilisations too. Humans face ultimate extinction, as do the many species that also belong here.
This government must declare a climate emergency and protect Earth: the only home, we’ve ever known.
