The World is on FIRE! COP26

IPCC report is 'code red for humanity' Yesterday`s IPCC report pulls no punches and has been flagged up as a 'code red for humanity'. It lays all of the global heating responsibility on we humans, so it is clearly up to us to put things right. Green Liberal Democrats have (no surprise!) been saying that for a long time now and as one commentator said, "people have apparently been listening - but not hearing!" On a similar theme, Doug Parr, chief scientist with Greenpeace UK, said "world leaders have done a terrible job of listening" to warnings about climate change. "This year, this has to change. We don't need more pledges, commitments and targets - we need real action right here, right now."

GREEN to the Core

Green Liberal Democrats are keen to flag up to the world that the Liberal Democrats have been GREEN to the core right from the outset. When the Liberal Democrats were formed in 1988 we inherited strong environmental credentials from the Liberal Party formed over many years. It seems these have been missed by the `Lord Finkelsteins` of the world and we need to restate our values strongly.
