Sign up to E-NewsRespond to the Scottish Government's Climate Consultation
Make sure a strong climate bill in Scotland sets the standard for others to follow and helps end climate injustice.
On 29 January 2008, the Scottish Government launched their Consultation on proposals for a Scottish Climate Change Bill, designed to reduce Scotland's climate change emissions.
Climate change is the greatest threat facing the world's poor, yet it is countries like our own that are responsible. Here in Scotland we (5 million people) are responsible for as much CO2 as 150 million people in Bangladesh.
The climate change bill is Scotland's opportunity to lead the way on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and make a huge difference to the millions of people globally whose lives and livelihoods are already being impacted by climate change. But it won't achieve this unless the bill:
1. reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 80% by 2050;
2. includes all aviation emissions;
3. and has annual targets for reductions of at least 3% per year.
