Scientists representing 1,000+ climate, conservation and health experts have delivered their message to MPs:
“Don’t ignore the science. Don’t ignore us. You must prioritise the #CANBill in this session”.
Head to action.zerohour.uk to join the scientists’ call for action.
I’m proud to be one of 1,176 letter co-signatories calling on MPs to back the #CANBill in this week’s private members’ bill ballot. The time for science-led legislation to tackle the climate-nature crisis is now. @Ed_Miliband @SteveReedMP zerohour.uk/scientist_letter
