My letter about the #CEEBill in today's @TheScotsman:
On 1 September, MPs returning to Westminster will be met by citizens calling “We want to Live!” They plan to remain in protest until the house agrees to debate the newly-published Climate and Ecological Emergency (CEE) Bill.
Who are the “we” who want to live? Are we climate migrants, today forced from our homelands by conflicts born of famine and drought? Are we islanders, long grieving and angered by the devastation of rising seas, dying coral and unprecedented storms?
