By taking a lead role in developing a greener society, Wales can:

  • Build a stronger economy
  • Create more jobs
  • Reduce fuel poverty
  • Improve health
  • Enhance wildlife

The government in Wales needs to ensure that tackling climate change is firmly at the heart of all its policies.

Our manifesto sets out a realistic agenda for the new Assembly Government that offers a vision of a positive future:

  • Cutting greenhouse gases by 9 percent per year
  • No incineration of waste
  • Recycling 80 percent by 2020
  • All Wales' electricity from renewable power
  • No new nuclear
  • Warm homes for all
  • Sustainable food production
  • Keep Wales GM Free
  • Public funds to buy local food
  • Environmental Rights Law
