Two years after Green Councillor, Carla Denyer, made the first ‘Climate Emergency’ declaration, we look back on how the first declaration came to be. Followed by news from The Green Party’s Action on Climate Emergency Officer, Julian Dean, on what Greens have done since to turn that declaration to action.
