VoteClimate Feb 2024: Labour's £28bn backtrack, Chris Packham's support & more

Dear incredible [Name],

We're horrified by Labour slashing its £28bn Green Prosperity Plan. With your help VoteClimate aims to get it reinstated as a manifesto commitment.

We've added a new option for you to register to switch your vote away from both mainstream parties and vote only for parties with policies that seriously tackle the climate emergency:
Log in to Register your Intent

If enough of us sign up to this option, together we have a chance of fixing Labour's broken policy by showing them that this policy is a vote-winner. We will also still tell you the party with the best climate policy that can win in your seat.

Whatever you commit to, you can change it later if Labour steps up.

Support Is Soaring

Eureka! Chris Packham is backing VoteClimate. And more high-profile climate and nature voices are supporting us on social media:

VoteClimate's membership has been surging (a big welcome to you all!) but we need to grow even faster. Please can you recruit some more members to allow us to really build the pressure on the political parties? Please forward this newsletter to anyone who may be interested.

Do you have contacts for nature and climate influencers who could promote VoteClimate in their newsletters and social media, please?

Zero Hour / CEE Bill

Zero Hour have launched their election campaign to get the Climate & Ecology Bill (formerly CEE Bill) adopted into law. They do this by helping us persuade our MPs to commit to vote for it.

They've built an amazing website full of ideas, resources, images, posters, templates for letters and press releases to be used in your constituency so that your prospective MPs fully understand how many of their constituents will be voting with nature and climate as their top priority. To get started enter your postcode at:

It's a wonderful opportunity to unite with like-minds in your area and to work together for real action by MPs and parties.
