Climate Reparations UK
The coalition of groups organising around Climate Reparations in the UK. We Demand:
We demand that the UK Government
-
Stop
coal, oil, gas and fracking projects -
Stop
giving public money to polluting industries -
Stop
banks, insurers and other private financiers from supporting and profiting from fossil fuel extraction -
Stop
fossil-fuelled militarisation and new infrastructure like roads and airports -
Stop
debt collection from global south countries and marginalised communities within the UK -
Stop
hostile migration policies -
Stop
privatising public spaces and community infrastructure
And instead:
-
Start to
make polluters like coal, oil and gas companies pay climate reparations -
Start to
invest in good, green jobs, especially for workers transitioning from high carbon industries and projects and those hit hardest by climate impacts, Covid-19, and precarity -
Start to
democratise housing, community infrastructure, and land access with strong social protection policies -
Start to
pay for the climate harms that the UK drives around the world -
Start to
democratise the financial industry to force a just transition -
Start to
reverse cuts to Overseas Aid and promote debt relief and cancellation -
Start to
democratise corporations continuing to extract and exploit abroad -
Start to
create safe ways for people to migrate with dignity -
Start to
giving decision making power to communities on the frontline of health, climate, economic, and social injustice -
Start to
enable young people to co-create education that serves well-being for thriving and sustainable communities
