This open letter to the leaders of the UK political parties during the 2024 General Election outlines five specific actions required in a programme of climate action.
Dear Party Leader,
We are writing to you as 408 members of the climate change research community who have
each authored at least one journal paper on climate change and related subjects.
We call on you to pledge to an ambitious programme of climate policies that accelerate
action, in the UK and across the world, both to cut greenhouse gas emissions and to increase
resilience to those impacts of climate change that cannot now be avoided. Without such a
programme, the UK will be shirking its international responsibilities and will be losing the
opportunity to promote prosperity and peace in the UK and around the globe.
It is very clear that a failure to tackle climate change with sufficient urgency and scale is
making the UK and the rest of the world more dangerous and insecure. The UK is
experiencing growing damage and harm to lives and livelihoods from climate chan
impacts, such as increases in the frequency and intensity of many extreme weather events and
rising sea levels. In the past three years, the British public has been subjected for the first
time to temperatures of more than 40 degrees Celsius during heatwave conditions that killed
thousands of people around the country, and record rainfall that has caused widespread
flooding and devastated agricultural yields.
The growing impacts of climate change in other parts of the world are endangering supply
chains for food and other goods and services to the UK. They are also adding to political
instability and forcing many people to migrate away from places that are worst affected. The
UK cannot completely insulate itself from the impacts of climate change in other parts of the
world. It is in the UK’s self-interest for other countries to reach net zero emissions as soon as
possible.
There is also compelling evidence that the investments required to accelerate climate change
action in the UK will have widespread economic, social and health benefits. In particular, a
reduction in the UK’s dependence on fossil fuels will improve the sustainability, affordability
and security of energy supplies. For instance, a faster transition to clean domestic energy
supplies will protect consumers from the volatility of international fossil fuel prices. Britain
needs a Government that learned from the energy crisis triggered by Russia’s invasion ofUkraine, which forced up the price of energy, damaging the economy, driving inflation and
requiring the Government to spend an estimated £78 billion, according to the Office for
Budget Responsibility, on consumer subsidies that contributed to huge profits for some
energy companies.
Any Party Leader who does not make stronger climate action a priority for the next five years and beyond will place the prosperity and well-being of the British people at severe risk. And it will be today’s children and future generations who will have to live longest with the consequences of a failure to act.
Specifically, we call on you as a Party Leader to pledge to the following programme of
action:
1. Publish and implement a credible and legal strategy for ending the UK’s contribution to climate change by meeting the UK’s statutory Carbon Budgets and uts target of net zero emissions of greenhouse by 2050.
2. Accelerate action across all sectors and all parts of the UK to adapt and become more
resilient to those impacts of climate change that cannot now be avoided, in line with
UK Climate Change Risk Assessments.
3. Respect and act on all the advice of the expert independent Climate Change
Committee, including its warning in its most recent Progress Report that “the UK will
continue to need some oil and gas until it reaches Net Zero, but this does not in itself
justify the development of new North Sea fields”.
4. Lead by example internationally on climate change, including through the
implementation of the decision at COP28 in Dubai in December 2023, and the
commitment to “transitioning away from fossil fuels in energy systems, in a just,
orderly and equitable manner, accelerating action in this critical decade, so as to
achieve net zero by 2050 in keeping with the science”.
5. Increase public and private funding and support for climate change mitigation and
adaptation in developing countries.
Without such a pledge, we do not believe that your Party deserves support in the forthcoming General Election.
Yours sincerely,
