Council and community Action in the Climate Emergency

Building the safe climate campaign from councils up

Why Councils?

 ​​Business as usual and campaigning for incremental change and suicidal targets has
​ led us into a climate emergency. 
With international agreements and national governments failing to stop – let alone reverse – global warming, councils can and are playing a key role in leading the climate emergency response.
Step 1. Acknowledge or declare we are in a Climate Emergency

Step 2. Mobilise your community and move your council into emergency mode 
By declaring a climate emergency you will support a call for immediate and urgent action to reverse global warming and avoid the coming climate catastrophe. Your council can add its voice to over 1500 councils that have already declared.
Emergencies require emergency responses
