Climate change is the key challenge for humanity in the 21st Century. This is an issue for every living creature on this planet, but it is the human race that has caused it and as custodians of this planet we must tackle it. Within the UK and elsewhere, the most deprived are hit the hardest by its consequences and face the highest adaption costs.
That is why I believe that power generation has to switch away from fossil fuels and be based on renewable technologies – investment in which would create thousands of new jobs. There is no need to expand aviation, road and other polluting forms of transport. Instead we must encourage the use of modern technologies to communicate globally and encourage local provision to avoid the unnecessary shipping of goods.
If elected on May 6th, I will hold firm to tackling climate change in my decision making at Lewisham Town Hall.
