Hi John

I hope you and your loved ones are doing well.

As lockdown restrictions begin to ease in the UK, many of us are wondering - what comes next?

The government is gearing up for an economic recovery, with decisions expected to be announced next week - will they put us back on the path to climate breakdown, or will they create hundreds of thousands of jobs for people across the country?

Now is the time to speak up for the future we want for ourselves and our planet. We have been through too much to slip back into a way of life that was bad for us, and for the climate.

Will you join us in demanding the green jobs we need for a secure future?

If the government gets this right, we could have a healthier, more resilient and safer world than we did before. We can create a new normal where everyone's needs are met, and the climate and nature can thrive.

We know that - unfortunately - many people will lose their jobs as a result of the pandemic. [1] The government has an obligation to support them, and by investing in green jobs it can do so and deal with the climate crisis at the same time.

Green jobs in sustainable industries will give us the economic boost we need now, and also provide security for generations to come. It will also mean we are less reliant on the polluting fossil fuel industries which have caused so much harm to the climate.

A green recovery is the best way to do what's right for us and for the planet.

The Prime Minister, Boris Johnson, has already said we need a "fairer, greener and more resilient economy" after Covid-19.[2]

Your voice can make sure those words are followed by action. If you sign the petition and get the word out, thousands more people will sign and we can create a powerful people-powered force that will put real pressure on the government to make the right call.

Please tell the government to invest in hundreds of thousands of green jobs, so we can build the future we deserve.
