I'm writing to ask you for your help in presenting a motion at our local council in support of the Climate and Nature (CAN) Bill.
As you know, the climate and nature crises fuel one another, and as one of the world's most nature-depleted countries, the UK must increase its ambition and action in line with the science.
The CAN Bill offers an evidence-led statutory framework that follows the best-available science, integrates our climate and nature policies, and locks into law the UK's international climate and biodiversity obligations. This proposed legislation would create a legal commitment to follow the science on tackling the climate-nature crisis. We are therefore asking all councils to vote to show their support for this UK-wide legislation.
By doing so, you would join 372 other councils from all across the UK nations in their support of the CAN Bill. Although this is a Westminster Bill, it covers issues that are deeply connected to our community in our constituency.
Building up local support, including that of our local councils, gives our local MP the mandate to advocate for the Bill in the UK Parliament. Currently, the CAN Bill has the support of 241 MPs and Peers, making it the largest cross-party platform for the environment in Westminster.
For your convenience, I have attached the following information below:

Every additional local council adding its support makes a difference.
I would be very grateful if you would propose the template motion above to your council colleagues.
