Rejected petition Make the UK an example to follow via the cutting down of fossil fuel emissions.
Students are constantly put under pressure over exams and qualifications. However these will be worth nothing if we don’t have a world where we can put these to use. Reducing the use of fossil fuels would be catalytic in saving not only the future of the planet but our futures too.
More details
We must reduce the use of fossil fuels urgently, this can be done by replacing them with cleaner/renewable sources. This could include solar, wind power, etc.
“We need to cut CO2 emissions almost in half (45%) by the end of the next decade,” says Kimberly Nicholas, associate professor of sustainability science at the Lund University Centre for Sustainability Studies (LUCSUS), in Sweden.
