The draft agreement and policy platform between the Scottish Greens and the Scottish Government has been published.

greens.scot/sites/default/…
If approved by Scottish Greens members, this would deliver
🌍 Action on climate
🏠 A new deal for tenants
👷‍♀️ Jobs in renewable energy
Patrick Harvie: This is a historic moment. This deal would see the Greens entering government for the first time ever in Scotland - or indeed anywhere in the U.K.

We must do everything in our power to tackle the escalating climate and nature emergencies.
Lorna Slater: We are pledging to work together to build a greener, fairer and independent Scotland. That’s why we are recommending this agreement to our parties.

Today the Tories are calling us extremists for following climate science. The problem is this means they're also calling the UN, International Energy Agency and the UK's own Climate Change Committee extremists - among many others.

@MarkRuskell discussed it with them this morning
@markruskell The UN has said the #climatebreakdown we're seeing around us is "code red for humanity." The UN General Secretary is calling for an end to fossil fuels before they destroy our plant.

The Scottish Tory verdict? Extremists.
The International Energy Agency has said that if governments are serious about climate crisis we must stop investing in fossil fuels immediately.

The Scottish Tory verdict? Extremists.
