As the next election approaches Greenpeace has teamed up with a collation of other environmental and development NGOs to organise a political hustings in our local constituency of West Dorset.
The coalition includes Greenpeace, Oxfam, WWF, RSPB, Christian Aid, the World Development Movement, People and Planet, Tearfund the Green Alliance, and a few others.
Between us we have 5-15,000 regular supporters in West Dorset which is really interesting as our current MP Oliver Letwin has a majority of 2,461
We think that the next MP (whichever party they belong to) should be made very aware of the number of people in his/her constituency that are worried about climate change. This is an issue that will win, or lose them votes.
We want to ask them the climate question and make sure that the candidates we vote for have very good answers……
Look at our list of events (on this page) associated with the campaign.
Particularly of course our 'Climate Question Time' on Friday 16th April.
