Jeremy Corbyn's record on climate change is actually filthy.
He bloody loves coal. So much so that he called for it to continue to be used, as did a group of his MPs just last year.

He hates nuclear power. His Shadow Chancellor would end nuclear power within ‘the first 100 days of a Labour government'...
... meaning suddenly the UK would suddenly have to generate 1/4 of our power from another source.
What's quick and dirty and powers our emergency capacity? Coal.
Since he became leader, Corbyn has had 400 opportunities to ask a PMQ about climate change.

How many did he take? Zero.

The socialist countries he idolises have had the worst record on climate of any industrialised nations.
Freer markets deliver cleaner economies.

Jeremy Corbyn has at every stage opposed the market mechanisms that are vital in bringing down the cost of cleaner energy.

The world over, those mechanisms are working - meaning that even countries with politicians resistant to acting on climate have seen their emissions fall.
Meanwhile the UK has been literally world leading. Since 2010 the UK has done more than any advanced country to reduce our CO2 emissions. More by miles.

Emissions are back down to levels not seen since 1888: order-order.com/2019/03/04/uk-…
The blunt fact is that Corbyn doesn't really care about climate change.

All he cares about is establishing a command economy and he will briefly hop on any trend that takes him closer to that dream.
