Can the UK lead on climate change? The CEE Bill and our future @ Online event
Climate Action Event #BacktheBill #CEEbill

About this Event

Join the CEE Bill Alliance Oxfordshire as we celebrate our climate change achievements locally and in the UK and discuss how we can continue to have strong climate leadership into the future.

The UK has been a world-leader on climate ambition to date, and has taken stronger action than many comparative countries. But for the UK to maintain its strong reputation the next evolution of climate architecture is needed.

While the current Climate Change Act has served us well, there are gaps which the proposed new CEE Bill will address and hence ensure a strong climate legacy is in place for the future.

The UK is no longer limited as a member of the EU, and can take bold, ambitious and independent steps to further strengthen its climate leadership.
