London is the UK's capital and a region in its own right. Its challenge is to become a more equal and healthy city and lead the way in sustainable development.
Did you know?
London has a £162 billion economy but contains three of the five most deprived boroughs in England.
London campaigns
Friends of the Earth is working on the following campaigns:
- Development masterplan
In his London Plan the Mayor is planning large scale growth and development. - Road Transport
Mayor Livingstone wants to build a new road bridge across the river in east London. - Aviation
Aviation is the fastest growing source of climate changing emissions, but the Government wants to build a third runway at Heathrow. - 2012 Olympics
The 2012 London Olympic/Paralympic Games should be a beacon of 21st Century thinking on sustainable development.
