John,

Climate action and net zero are quickly becoming battlegrounds for the far-right to play out their agenda.

They are preying on people's very real frustrations as a result of a decade and a half of government cuts and communities reeling from devastating impacts of the climate crisis. 

Green MP Carla Denyer said that 'the global far-right are weaponsing net zero - and we'll all suffer', adding that: 

'If the government wants to counter the rise of the far-right and – bluntly – to still be in government in 5 years’ time, then they need to focus on delivering policies that make people’s lives better, now.'

As Greens we know that tackling the far-right threat means not allowing far-right politicians to capitalise on people's fears and anxieties to prevent the kind of action that we need to secure a liveable future.

It means pushing the government to acknowledge that raising living standards and climate action are two sides of the same coin. 

John, are you with us? 

Green Friends, who give a regular donation, are a growing part of our movement helping us curb runaway global warming, accelerating the transition to clean energy and, critically, keeping fossil fuels in the ground.

Thanks for your support.
