We're facing a climate emergency

Climate breakdown is affecting us all. Floods wash away homes, livelihoods and wildlife. Wildfires are raging. Polar icecaps are melting. Tragically, it's those doing the least to cause this crisis that are least able to weather the storms.

Millions of the world's poorest people are displaced while big businesses and politicians continue to pour fuel on the fire. 

Time is running out in the fight to protect people and planet. But there’s still an opportunity to change our future – if we act now.

Join today

Join thousands of others taking action to protect people and planet by donating a regular gift and becoming a supporter today. Our supporters have helped achieve milestone victories and establish key laws for our planet. Like launching the Climate Change Act 2008 - the world’s first climate change law – which paved the way for similar legislation around the world.  

Thanks to our supporters, we’re currently: 

 ✔️ Demanding better climate protection. Since 2022 we’ve beaten the UK government twice in court over its Net Zero strategies. These strategies weren’t good enough and didn’t show how we’d make the necessary carbon cuts to meet the country’s legally binding reduction targets. Our lawyers and campaigners continue to hold our leaders to account and are calling for more ambitious plans so that we reduce our carbon emissions in a fair way.

✔️ Fighting dirty fossil fuels. We’re challenging the government’s approval of fossil fuel projects. We helped win the Horse Hill oil drilling case, which has fundamentally changed the permission process for all new fossil fuel developments. It’s led to our latest legal success – stopping a new coal mine in Cumbria.

✔️ Preventing airport expansions. We’ve taken the government to court in our ongoing legal challenge to prevent a climate-wrecking third runway at Heathrow.

Where your money goes

By donating a regular gift, you'll help fund vital research, expand and mobilise our grassroots network, support the vital work of our in-house legal team, and pressure decision-makers to take action to stop climate and ecological breakdown.

And it’ll mean you can look back in 5, 10 or 20 years and say "I was on the right side of history. I helped fight the climate crisis.”
