Top Politicians Join 10:10 Campaign
Utility Exchange reported yesterday on the new climate change campaign, 10:10 which was launched this week. The Guardian reports today that Gordon Brown and senior cabinet ministers have all agreed to sign up to the 10:10 climate change campaign.
The number of people who have now signed up to the campaign to cut their greenhouse gas emissions has reached 10,000. Ed Miliband has promised to cut his emissions and those of his department, as has the Tory frontbench and the Liberal Democrat leader, Nick Clegg.
Other high profile people who’ve agreed to cut their emissions include Radio 1 DJ Sara Cox, and Peter Capaldi, the actor. In addition, over 400 businesses and organisations have signed up to cut their carbon footprint. These include small charities and large multi nationals.
