All aboard for Paris - a climate law for the EU

To Chancellor Merkel, President Macron and the leaders of all EU governments:

The Paris Agreement set us a 'zero emission' destination, now we need a map to reach it and Parliament has just drawn one -- a law requiring the EU and its governments to have a credible plan for getting there. It would electrify EU action on climate change and galvanise the rest of the world. Please support this law with your vote on June 19th.

All aboard for Paris - a climate law for the EU
EU leaders could agree a killer plan to slash Europe’s carbon emissions later this month, but only if Merkel and Macron point them in the right direction.

The Paris climate agreement set a destination -- zero emissions -- and the European Parliament just drew up a map to get there. It's a law requiring the EU and its governments to have a credible plan for the journey, putting future policies through a ‘Paris test’ -- do they help us reach it?

Our leaders, Merkel included, aren't on board yet but Macron is an exception. If we can get Merkel to join him, they can persuade Europe together to plot a true course for fixing the climate. Our marches and messages of hope inspired the bold vision of Paris. We can do it again and inspire the drive to make it a reality.

We can’t let them miss this opportunity when they vote on June 19th. When 1 million of us sign, we’ll deliver our demand for Merkel and Macron to lead us boldly into a zero emission future with killer stunts, advocacy and adverts.
