4 Key Questions to put to election candidates:

 

1. Climate Change: What will the party do about putting a new climate plan in place - one that will put us on track to meet our climate obligations and secure sustainable jobs in the green economy?

 

2. Warm homes: Will the party commit to a £6 billion/year council led, street by street home insultation programme to cut bills and emissions?  Even a place of relative wealth like St Albans has many people living fuel poverty and has a lot of badly insulated, cold homes.

 

3. Pollution: How will they put an end to the sewage scandal and clean up the water and air pollution that's harming us  and wildlife? Our local River Ver is a rare chalk stream river that has been polluted with sewage numerous times.

 

4. Protect habitats abroad: Will they commit to a new law that will prevent companies committing environmental and human rights abuses across their supply chain? We need to ensure that UK companies aren't responsible for deforesting the Amazon.

 

Elections are a key time to get commitments out of politicians and to push them to formulate better policies for the environment. By asking candidates questions like the above you can contribute towards making a more sustainable future for all of us.
