Read Hansard Text
The petition of residents of Macclesfield,
Declares that the United Kingdom should maintain its lead in investment and job creation in clean industries, cut waste, improving air quality, and inspiring the next generation of engineers and scientists; further that the United Kingdom should work to restore natural habitats; and finally that Her Majesty’s Government should take steps to mitigate the impact of climate change in the developing world, where more extreme weather is already having an impact.
The petitioners therefore request that the House of Commons urges the Prime Minister to give priority to set a UK net zero emissions target, enshrined in law, ahead of the year 2050.
And the petitioners remain, etc. .]
