#voteclimate

No elected Tory MPs have been rated as voting positively on climate issues, under a survey of parliamentary voting patterns since the Conservatives took power in 2010.

Only a single sitting Conservative was rated as “good” on climate votes in the ranking, but that was Lisa Cameron, the MP for East Kilbride, who defected from the Scottish National Party in October.

The analysis of voting patterns by VoteClimate, an organisation set up to inform UK voters on how to cast their ballots for maximum impact on climate policy, examined all of the votes in parliament since 2010 on energy, transport, finance, housing and other issues that have an impact on the climate crisis.

Labour and the Liberal Democrats dominated the list of MPs rated “very good” on the climate, for their votes on a wide range of legislation, from fracking to the burning of upland peat. MPs were awarded points for their positive votes, minus points for those that had a negative impact on the climate, and this was divided by the number of votes in which they could have taken part, in order to arrive at a final score.

VoteClimate is offering to help voters confused by parties’ environmental policies to navigate the UK’s first-past-the-post electoral system so as to maximise their positive impact on climate policies. When the parties’ manifestos are published, the site will rate the policies they contain against climate objectives.

'A spokesperson for Labour said: “The choice at this election is clear. Either we have a Conservative government that pollutes our rivers with toxic sewage, is led by and funded by climate deniers, and fails to meet our climate and nature targets, [or] a Labour government that will restore nature, deliver the largest investment in clean energy in our history, so we can cut bills for families, make Britain energy independent, and tackle the climate crisis to protect our homes for our children and grandchildren.” '

TAKE ACTION: The DNC just reversed course on banning donations from fossil fuel companies, turning its back on those living with the impacts of climate change and fossil fuel extraction every day — as well as the more than 980 candidates nationwide that our community recruited to sign the No Fossil Fuel Money Pledge. By ringing the alarm now, we can hold the DNC accountable to its values, and deliver thousands of petitions during the DNC’s Summer Meeting in Chicago this week. Add your name today!

Climate change and the environment has emerged as the number one issue for voters as we enter the final weekend before election day Oct. 21 2019, with a quarter (25%) of voters polled saying it’s the most important election issue to them. As you consider your options, here’s all you need to know to #voteclimate.

An astonishing 4.7 million Canadians voted in advance polls over the October 11-14 long weekend – a 29% increase over advance voting participation compared with 2015. But there are still millions of Canadians deciding who to cast their ballot for. Here, we share some essential resources from Climate Action Network – Réseau action climat (CAN-Rac) Canada, members, and allies:
