Climate change
The climate is changing, gravely threatening not just our way of life but life itself.
While the Government has made some good steps to reduce emissions of climate-changing gases, in one area its record is awful: the transport sector.
Transport is the fastest growing source of climate change gases in the UK; road transport alone now accounts for 26% of emissions.
Emissions are rising because the building of more and more roads and airports is spurring us to drive more and fly more. This travel brings us short-term benefits but is costing our children a healthy planet.
We’re working hard to stop the building of damaging, unnecessary roads and airports.
Airport expansion means bulldozed villages, noise, air pollution and climate change. Help us fight airport expansion and campaign for better alternatives to flying.
