Hi fellow Green activists
You may like to have a copy of the following which I sent to everyone in my address book. Please forward it to anyone if you wish.
best wishes

Friends of the Earth have put forward an Early Day Motion (EDM) which has now been signed by a remarkable 369 MPs. It proposes a law requiring the government to ensure that Carbon Dioxide emissions are cut by 3% year on year. The Early Day Motion has been signed by MPs right across the political spectrum, even including Liam Fox and Michael Howard. If just a small number of additional MPs sign it, the government will be under great pressure to allow parliamentary time for a bill along these lines. Can you please go out on the streets with a local Friends of the Earth group asking people to fill in their name and address on FoE's postcard, to be sent to their MP urging the MP to sign the EDM? I've done this a few times and many people have been willing for us to send the postcard to their MP. Please see if you can spare a couple of hours to do so. If the UK passes such a law, it will be a great example which campaigners abroad can ask their legislators to follow. See FoE's notice below. We are going out doing this on 17 June, and most other Saturdays this summer.
Thank you
