We are at a pivotal point in Scotland's climate journey

We are at a pivotal point in Scotland's climate journey. Legislation to revise Scotland's legal climate framework has now passed, and the Scottish elections are on the horizon.

We’ve joined over 70 organisations and called on the First Minister to act and commit increased fair funding to:

🚏 Enable people to walk, wheel and cycle safely, and get about quickly and easily on an affordable and reliable public transport network;

🏠Power our homes through cleaner forms of heating and ensure they are properly insulated, protecting households from the risk of fuel poverty and improving health.

👩‍🌾 Support farmers, crofters and fisheries to manage our land and seas in ways that protect and restore nature and reduce emissions, cutting food waste and promoting healthy and sustainable diets; and

♻️ Help people develop the skills needed for a new low carbon, circular economy, and deploy fast, fair and managed plans to fully transition away from reliance on polluting fossil fuels.
