The Urgent Call to UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer

In an open letter to Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the coalition, including Go Dharmic, has emphasised the urgency of the situation:

The Stakes: Why the Climate and Nature Bill Matters

Nature is not just a backdrop to our lives—it is the very fabric that sustains us. From the air we breathe to the food we eat, and from protection against climate change to the overall health of our ecosystems, nature’s well-being is directly linked to our prosperity.

The Climate and Nature Bill is designed to address these critical issues. It aims to:

Set Climate and Nature Targets: Mandate the UK to achieve specific climate and nature targets.
Implement a Strategy: Require the Secretary of State to devise and implement a strategy to meet these targets.
Establish a Climate and Nature Assembly: Create an advisory assembly to guide the strategy.
Assign Duties to Committees: Allocate responsibilities to the Committee on Climate Change and the Joint Nature Conservation Committee concerning the strategy and targets.

How You Can Get Involved

Keir Starmer’s role as the new UK Prime Minister places him in a pivotal position to make a significant impact on the future of the UK’s environmental policies. The message from Go Dharmic and our allies is unequivocal: there is no time to delay. We must act now to restore and protect our natural world.

Here’s how you can help:

Raise Awareness: Share the message on social media, with friends, and within your community. The more voices we have, the stronger our impact.
Reach Out to MPs: Contact your local MPs and urge them to support the Climate and Nature Bill.

Go Dharmic’s involvement with Zero Hour highlights our unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship and social justice. By joining forces, we amplify our call for urgent, science-led action to address the twin crises of climate change and nature degradation.

Prime Minister Keir Starmer has the opportunity to lead the UK towards a sustainable and resilient future. It’s time to let nature work by working for nature. Together, we can ensure that the Climate and Nature Bill becomes the cornerstone of a better, greener, and more just world.
