9/ Mid-2000s @friends-earth.bsky.social's #BigAsk campaign pushed Parliament to pass the #ClimateChangeAct, the 1st law in the world committing a country to drastically cut emissions
📜🌍 Grassroots organizing plus political lobbying proved transformative, setting a legal framework for climate action
"Asad Rehman, chief executive of Friends of the Earth, said:
“Kemi Badenoch’s desperate attempt to sound like Donald Trump on climate change is taking her party further away from the interests of future generations, businesses, and the needs of ordinary people.
"Millions of lives are already […]
World leaders akin to Trump, who just bailed out Millei with $20B
#Millei&MiloniatTrump’sinauguration #KemiBadenoch’sgoal is to repeal #ClimateChangeAct
Leave is no plan.
Leaving Europe weakened the UK
Leaving the commitment to the Climate Act provides no innovation
Leaving the ECHR provides no protections
Watch the politicians who have no real ideas.

📢 📢 📢 "The #ClimateChangeAct isn’t just about climate targets; it protects real people.
Without it, climate policy would become voluntary, subject to short-term politics rather than binding duty. 🧵

Principled and clearsighted. Kudos to @mliebreich.bsky.social #climateChangeAct
PARI supports Nkangala District Municipality’s work to institutionalise the Climate Change Act. On 18-19 June, our Land Governance programme participated in a stakeholder workshop held by DFFE and the Municipality, to develop a climate change needs and response assessment.

Lord Deben @lorddeben, CCC Chairman, says that Government must ‘explain and explore with every community what needs to be done to tackle climate change’. And we must recognise that ‘climate change is a symptom of what we have done to the earth’ he adds. #ClimateChangeAct #CCAat10
Dr Emily Shuckburgh from the British Antarctic Survey takes us through the latest science, including climate projections for the future and the need for ‘substantially increased ambition’ - it’s a challenge to all of us, she says. #CCAct10 #ClimateChangeAct
Lawrence Slade, CEO of @EnergyUKcomms sets out some of the key challenges ahead, including decarbonising heat, transport, buildings and industry. #ClimateChangeAct #CCAat10 #UKClimateAction
The #ClimateChangeAct is owned ‘not by one political party but by all political parties’ says @edmillibandMP, adding that CCC is one of the ‘genuine innovations of the Act’. ‘We’ve got to move further & we’ve got to move faster’ he says - and that requires ‘much greater urgency’.
.@CarolineLucas recalls extraordinary achievement of the #ClimateChangeAct but says ‘all of the red lights are flashing on the dashboard’ and ‘we need to do a huge amount more’ to tackle climate change as she opens joint event in Parliament to mark ten years of the Act. #CCAat10
Getting ready to welcome guests to @UKParliament tonight to mark ten years of the #ClimateChangeAct, along with our co-hosts @EnergyUKcomms @policy_connect @APPCCG. We will be tweeting a few images from this evening’s proceedings. #CCAct10 #UKClimateAction
A week today (28 June) we publish our annual report to #Parliament setting out latest progress in reducing UK greenhouse gas emissions. It's ten years since the #ClimateChangeAct became law, and we've got plenty to say! #UKClimateAction #climatechange
Feels like an important time for UK climate policy and @theCCCuk right now. It’s a decade since the #ClimateChangeAct and the creation of the CCC. We’ve had some great successes, but we must restate the case for the next decade.
Great to begin that discussion at @GRI_LSE today.
