On Wednesday 20th January 2010 Leeds City Councillors will debate
proposals for reducing city-wide carbon emissions in Leeds to prevent
dangerous climate change*. The outcome of the vote on this debate is
very important.

A city-wide target for Leeds of only 5% carbon reductions by 2020
will not set Leeds on a path of achieving the target of 80% reductions
by 2050.

A coalition of local groups including Leeds Friends of the Earth, Stop
Climate Chaos Leeds, Tidal, and Schumacher North, has been lobbying
Leeds City Councillors to commit to city-wide year-on-year reductions
with regular monitoring of progress towards a target of at least 40%
carbon reduction by 2020.

They're asking people go down and lobby their Councillors,
The Council meeting at the Civic Hall will start at 1.30 pm
