Link to petition: www.change.org/petitionJohnHowellMP-CEEBill
It has never been clearer that the world is facing an unprecedented climate and ecological emergency. We at Greener Henley are proud that Henley Town Council declared a climate emergency in February 2020, and that so many groups across the Henley constituency are working hard with their councils and parishes to lower their carbon footprints. However, we cannot solve this problem solely on a local level: we need national action to bring about the change that is needed. We are calling on John Howell MP to support the CEE Bill, to protect us from the worst effects of the emergency.
We imagine a future where our community’s prosperity and wellbeing goes hand in hand with a thriving natural world, rich in biodiversity; a future where cleaner air and water and healthy local food can be enjoyed by all residents, both now and for generations to come.
The CEE Bill will:
- Ensure that the UK reduces greenhouse gas emissions in line with its legal obligations to limit global heating to 1.5°C.
- Account for our entire carbon footprint in calculating emissions.
- Protect nature and actively conserve ecosystems to reverse the decline in biodiversity.
- Empower ordinary people to have a real say on solutions in a citizens assembly.
John Howell MP, we ask you to take urgent action to avert a climate and ecological catastrophe. In your capacity as our elected representative in Parliament, please support the Climate and Ecological Emergency Bill (CEE Bill). Please help to protect our futures, and the futures of our children.

Members of Parliament of the United Kingdom House of Commons have underscored the need by their government to ensure that democracy and the rule of the law are protected in Uganda.
This was during a debate on a session motion moved by Dr Paul Williams of Stockton South Constituency that touched Uganda’s ‘systematically undermining of democratic’ value.
The MPs however lauded Uganda for efforts in keeping peace in Mogadishu and its expansive immigration policy that has seen it placed the third host of global refugees. Most of the MPs criticized Uganda’s governance system except for John Howell of Henley constituency who questioned why Britain meddling in Uganda’s affairs.

On Monday 5 October, MPs will debate petitions relating to the UK’s departure from the EU. This debate will start at 6pm and will be opened by Mike Hill MP, a member of the Petitions Committee.
Read the petitions to be debated:
Halt Brexit For A Public Inquiry: https://petition.parliament.uk/archived/petitions/241848
To establish a Public Inquiry into the conduct of the 2016 EU Referendum: https://petition.parliament.uk/archived/petitions/250178
Extend the transition; delay negotiations until after the coronavirus outbreak: https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/300412
Why are these petitions being debated?
The Petitions Committee has the power to schedule debates on e-petitions in the House of Commons Second Chamber, Westminster Hall.
In deciding which petitions should be debated, it takes into account how many people have signed the petition, the topicality of the issue raised, whether the issue has recently been debated in Parliament, and the breadth of interest among MPs.
In some cases, the Petitions Committee will group a small number of petitions together when scheduling a debate, where these petitions relate to the same central issue or event.
What will the petitions debate achieve?
Debates on petitions in Westminster Hall are general debates about the issues raised by the petition(s).
MPs can discuss the petition(s) and, if they wish, ask questions about the Government’s position on the issue or press the Government to take action.
A Government Minister takes part in the debate and responds to the points raised.
These debates help to raise the profile of a campaign and can influence decision-making in Government and Parliament.
Petition debates in Westminster Hall cannot directly change the law or result in a vote to implement the request of the petition.
Creating new laws, or changing existing ones, can only be done through the parliamentary legislative process which involves a number of debates, and detailed consideration of the law in draft, in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords.
This process is normally started by the Government, although there are some ways in which individual MPs or members of the House of Lords who are not in the Government (known as "backbenchers") can ask Parliament to consider new laws.

Why are these petitions being debated?
The Petitions Committee has the power to schedule debates on e-petitions in the House of Commons Second Chamber, Westminster Hall.
In deciding which petitions should be debated, it takes into account how many people have signed the petition, the topicality of the issue raised, whether the issue has recently been debated in Parliament, and the breadth of interest among MPs.
In some cases, the Petitions Committee will group a small number of petitions together when scheduling a debate, where these petitions relate to the same central issue or event.
What will the petitions debate achieve?
Debates on petitions in Westminster Hall are general debates about the issues raised by the petition(s).
MPs can discuss the petition(s) and, if they wish, ask questions about the Government’s position on the issue or press the Government to take action.
A Government Minister takes part in the debate and responds to the points raised.
These debates help to raise the profile of a campaign and can influence decision-making in Government and Parliament.
Petition debates in Westminster Hall cannot directly change the law or result in a vote to implement the request of the petition.
Creating new laws, or changing existing ones, can only be done through the parliamentary legislative process which involves a number of debates, and detailed consideration of the law in draft, in both the House of Commons and the House of Lords.
This process is normally started by the Government, although there are some ways in which individual MPs or members of the House of Lords who are not in the Government (known as "backbenchers") can ask Parliament to consider new laws.

It has never been clearer that the world is facing an unprecedented climate and ecological emergency. We at Greener Henley are proud that Henley Town Council declared a climate emergency in February 2020, and that so many groups across the Henley constituency are working hard with their councils and parishes to lower their carbon footprints. However, we cannot solve this problem solely on a local level: we need national action to bring about the change that is needed. We are calling on John Howell MP to support the CEE Bill, to protect us from the worst effects of the emergency.
We imagine a future where our community’s prosperity and wellbeing goes hand in hand with a thriving natural world, rich in biodiversity; a future where cleaner air and water and healthy local food can be enjoyed by all residents, both now and for generations to come.
The CEE Bill will:
- Ensure that the UK reduces greenhouse gas emissions in line with its legal obligations to limit global heating to 1.5°C.
- Account for our entire carbon footprint in calculating emissions.
- Protect nature and actively conserve ecosystems to reverse the decline in biodiversity.
- Empower ordinary people to have a real say on solutions in a citizens assembly.
John Howell MP, we ask you to take urgent action to avert a climate and ecological catastrophe. In your capacity as our elected representative in Parliament, please support the Climate and Ecological Emergency Bill (CEE Bill). Please help to protect our futures, and the futures of our children.
