Our successes7 July 2008
People like you help us get results. Since the early 90s we've been pushing the Government to take climate change seriously.
Together we can achieve a lot - so please keep taking our actions. Thank you.
Climate change law
Hundreds of thousands of you helped us win the world's first national law to reduce climate change emissions.
But we didn't stop there. In 2009 we got the Government to change how it works out the cost of carbon - making it more difficult to justify polluting projects.
Helping people
We've also got the Government to set higher renewable energy targets. And we've supported communities creating local clean energy schemes.
Our campaigning has led to households - that produce their own electricity and heat from renewable sources - get paid for it.
In Northern Ireland our Green New Deal recommends ways of tackling climate change, rising fuel prices and recession.
