UNIONS and climate activists have joined forces to call for £1.9 billion to deliver an energy transition that “puts worker justice at its heart.”
Campaigners rallied outside the Treasury in London today before delivering a letter calling on Chancellor Rachel Reeves to ring-fence funding until 2030, to support the transition to clean energy jobs.
The letter – signed by 65 organisations, ranging from Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth to Unite, RMT, the STUC and Moray and Aberdeen trades councils – calls for a UK-wide industrial strategy backed by public investment in skills, domestic renewables manufacturing and expanding publicly owned energy production.
