Declaring a climate emergency would provide substantially increased authority to tackle carbon emissions and global warming.
This is especially important as climate change spurs record-breaking heatwaves, wildfires, floods, droughts, and more. The planet is currently entering its sixth Mass Extinction event and we are hurtling towards the point of no return for global temperature rise.
