Deliver a fair global deal in Copenhagen that keeps global warming under 2 degrees C.

December will see world leaders decide how to tackle global warming at the UN climate summit in Copenhagen. They must not fail to deliver a fair global deal to keep us all safe from dangerous and irreversible climate change.

The UK is historically one of the countries most responsible for climate change. Even today Japan, Europe and the US pump out over 40 per cent of global CO₂ emissions. It is only fair that rich countries like the UK must act first and fastest to cut their emissions.

The Stop Climate Chaos Coalition calls on the Government to push urgently for a fair global deal in Copenhagen which limits global warming to under 2 degrees C, and to lead the way by committing to reduce UK carbon emissions by at least 40% by 2020 through domestic action, and call on other rich countries to do the same.
