  • The Cabinet Secretary for Environment, Climate Change and Land Reform; That Refer to a “Climate Emergency”
    Please provide all emails sent and received by: the Cabinet Secretary for Environment, Climate Change and Land Reform; that refer to a “Climate Emergency”. This should cover the period from 1 February 2019 to 11 May 2019. From: (REDACTED) Date: 8 May 2019 at 10:48:11 BST To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]>, "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Subject: Climate Emergency (REDACTED). Dear Cabinet Secretary, I watched with pride and admiration, The First Minister put Scotland again in a leadership position in the fight on Climate Change by declaring a “climate emergency” at the SNP Conference last month. So immediate and real are the threats of climate change that we really are in a state of emergency. Often when we think of the Environment and its damage we imagine somewhere or someone on the other side of the world. The damage is real and it is happening here in Scotland and its victims are the poor and the young. Encouraged by the recent Climate Change demonstrations in London and Edinburgh as well as the First Ministers speech, I have done my own research in to the Environmental Standards in my own locality, and I am disheartened by what I found. In terms of Air Quality alone, which is so vitally Important to health, what I discovered is a worrying trend of worsening air quality at the same time as the Afternoon school run (15:00 – 16:00). This isn’t just unique to my own town, but a pattern that is repeated across many locations around Scotland.
