I'm travelling to the UN climate talks next week and I plan to hand in a letter to Rishi Sunak.

Dear John
"Look at the devastating floods in Pakistan…When you see 33 million people displaced, with disease rife and spreading through the water, you know it is morally right to honour our promises."
That was Rishi Sunak at the UN climate talks last year. Where the prime minister reminded the world of his government’s promise to cut emissions by 68% by 2030.
But since then, he’s been busy dishing out new oil and gas licences, blocking offshore wind farms and delaying crucial climate policies.
I’m travelling to the next round of climate talks in a few weeks. I plan to deliver a letter to the prime minister to remind him about his 2030 promises. Can you add your name to make my message more powerful?

There are just over 6 years to meet the 2030 target to cut emissions by over two-thirds.
If the government doesn’t have a credible and fair plan to cut emissions soon, even more extreme climate breakdown will be felt in the UK and around the world. And the most vulnerable who did the least to contribute to the climate crisis will be impacted most with sea-level rise, extreme heat, flooding and storms.
With climate targets to reach by 2030 every country needs to do its bit to tackle climate breakdown. Mr Sunak promised on the world stage that the UK government would meet its 2030 target. But the government is off-track to deliver this pledge, and now its international reputation as a climate leader is going down the drain.
But more importantly, the UK government has a global responsibility to honour its climate commitments. Especially as a country that benefited massively from its past industrial emissions, putting us in a better position to do more now.
To stay below the 1.5 degree global heating limit, rapidly cutting emissions is vital. Help us hold the UK government to its 2030 climate target and sign the letter before it’s given to the PM.

Every year, the need for action at the UN climate conference becomes more urgent. With your help, we can call for bolder climate action for people and planet.
Thanks for all your support.
Best wishes,
