General Election

Our manifesto for the 2019 election

Climate change, nature, and human wellbeing are inextricably linked. If parliamentary candidates do not act urgently on the climate emergency (by putting it front and centre of their election promises), then the cost to current and future generations in terms of lives lost, livelihoods damaged, and economic harm will be severe.

We've come up with ten policies to tackle climate and ecological breakdown that should be included in all of the political party manifestos.

What to ask candidates

Depending on where you live, there may be several candidates vying for the position of MP in your area.

Ahead of the vote on 12 December, they'll likely be stepping out to speak to constituents and share their plans should they be elected - including what they plan to do to tackle the climate crisis.

We've put some questions together for you to ask should they come knocking.
