Open Repeal Net Zero targets & Climate Change Act. Stop Renewable energy expansion

Created by Nigel Sumpter
Closes on

We think Government MUST immediately revoke ALL Net Zero Targets & The Climate Change Act 2008. Since this became law numerous scientists up to Nobel Laureate level have jointly declared "There is NO climate emergency". The raised energy prices are impacting the UK's living costs & economy.

Current policies are based on just one side of what we consider to be a two-sided scientific debate, as we do NOT believe there is a consensus among scientists that human emissions cause or influence climate change.

We think this is not a basis for significant UK legislation. We think that Net Zero & renewable energy targets cause UK's economy & citizens to suffer high energy costs & that expanding renewable energy takes good farmland. Net Zero MUST end & be reconsidered with evidence from ALL sides.

    Progress in tackling climate change: debate in Parliament

    On 19 March, MPs held a debate entitled 'Progress in tackling climate change'.

    This was a Backbench Business debate led by Luke Murphy MP. Minister for Climate Katie White MP responded on behalf of the Government.

    Explainer

    Backbench Business debates give MPs an opportunity to debate a topic of their choice, and receive a response from the Government.

    They are a way to:

    • raise awareness of an issue
    • seek to influence government policy
    • put the views of backbench MPs, political parties, and the Government on record.

    They do not generally involve a vote on a particular action or decision.
