Brexit and the environment

Amidst uncertainty over Brexit – and what the various outcomes may mean for the environment – campaigner Kierra Box explains what's missing from the government's proposed Environment Bill.

Speaking ahead of the extraordinary Saturday sitting of Parliament Craig Bennett, Friends of the Earth chief executive, said the Withdrawal Deal is a significant threat to the environment.

Whatever happens next, a no-deal Brexit must be taken off the table. Our health and environment depend on it.

Friends of the Earth is calling on party leaders to come together and take ‘no-deal’ off the table following Theresa May’s Brexit deal being rejected by parliament this evening (15 January).

Anyone who cares about the quality of our air, water and nature should be working to avoid a no-deal Brexit at all costs, says Craig Bennett.

Even with a deal, the signs aren’t great for our climate, nature or air. But a no deal would be disastrous.

The government has published 25 technical notices today laying out preparation for the so-called Brexit 'no-deal' scenario, still considered the most damaging outcome.

The UK government wants to make new international trade deals after Brexit. How could this put our environment at risk?

We need to talk about what happens to our environment and health if the UK leaves the EU without a deal.
