Communities in the Fight Against Climate Change
Labour Energy Forum

Add to calendar


The climate challenge means a wholesale transformation of our housing, transport, economic and social structures. Labour councils can lead in the climate fightback and can create thousands of decent jobs, keep energy revenues local, end fuel poverty and shift to 100% clean power. Corbyn has created space for a 21st century municipal socialism. Town hall politics can hand power back to communities; it’s time to get moving.
