Amazing news! Dr Roz Savage, an ambitious, determined, eloquent and charismatic MP, who has been an environmental campaigner for 20 years and rowed solo across three oceans to raise awareness of environmental degradation, was drawn third in the Private Members’ Bill Ballot and introduced the Climate and Nature Bill into parliament on 16 October. The Bill has cross-party support, including eleven cross-party co-sponsors (the maximum permitted).
To quote Roz Savage: “I like to think of positive change in the same way – it can often feel like nothing is happening, but then suddenly you hit that tipping point of public awareness, pressure, and desire for change, and things happen very quickly”. Exciting times!
Join the photo call asking our MP Sarah Dyke to attend the second reading of the Bill. Look out for further details.
Remember, remember on the 5th of November – and any other days you plan to light a bonfire – to move and reassemble the bonfire before lighting it to avoid burning hedgehogs alive.
