OUR declaration
Last November we launched our COP26 declaration - asking the UK Government to take ambitious action to address the climate crisis by putting a proper price on pollution.
This call was supported by over 1,200 members of the public, as well as the likes of Stephen Fry, Farhana Yamin, Greenpeace, Tesco and Shell. You can view the full list of declaration signatories below.

Sign our petition.
Since we launched our Declaration, the Government has accepted our recommendations to explore the role that sector-specific carbon pricing can play in driving a fair and just net zero transition, as well as how multilateral collaboration on Border Adjustments can help drive global progress on carbon pricing.
Following these announcements - and unprecedented levels of support for our Declaration - we launched a nationwide petition calling for the Government to put a proper price on pollution, and to use the revenues to support people through the low-carbon transition. The petition was signed by 108,000 members of the public and triggered a debate in Parliament, which was held on the first day of COP26 and heard contributions from a cross-party section of MPs.
