Tell Starmer to step up for a Big Climate Plan now

Friends of the Earth is the UK's biggest grassroots network dedicated to protecting people and planet.

Together with Greenpeace UK, we intervened to help bring about an important legal victory which resulted in lengthy sentences reduced for Just Stop Oil activists. A key legal test over the right to protest has culminated in a critical win for 6 out of 16 climate activists in an appeal at the Court of Appeal. But more needs to be done going forwards: we don't believe that peaceful protest for sounding the alarm about the climate crisis should result in jail time.
