acknowledgements

Many thanks to the the Baring Foundation, the Environment Agency and

the JMG Foundation for providing financial support for this pamphlet.

This pamphlet draws heavily on my experiences working on climate

change in government, business and the voluntary sector. It has been

influenced by discussions with colleagues, friends and indeed

adversaries. Many thanks to all of them, including participants in

Green Alliance’s Greenwave seminars (www.green-wave.co.uk).

I would particularly like to thank Ian Christie, Karen Crane, Matthew

Davis, Rebecca Willis, Matthew Smerdon and David Cutler for their

advice and feedback on more than one draft. Alex Evans, Sally Golding,

Tony Grayling, Chris Littlecott, Bernard Mercer, Danyal Sattar, and

Elliot Whittington found time to meet and discuss an early draft.

Tracy Carty and others at Green Alliance did likewise. Matilda Bark,

Andrew Birkby and Catherine Beswick provided valuable research

support. Thank you also to Faye Scott for her work on producing this

pamphlet. Responsibility for the version that follows is of course

mine alone.

about the author

Stephen Hale is director of Green Alliance, and a trustee of Christian

Aid. Prior to joining Green Alliance he worked as an adviser to UK

about Green Alliance

Green Alliance is one of the UK’s most influential environmental

organisations. Its aim is to make environmental solutions a priority in

British politics.

Green Alliance works closely with many of the UK's leading

environmental organisations, and with others in the third sector. We are

currently working with the National Council for Voluntary

Organisations to pilot new ways to engage new voluntary sector groups

on climate change, and with Help the Aged on older people and the

environment. More initiatives of this kind are planned. We have also

established the Greenwave programme to provide a forum for third

sector discussions on how to accelerate political action on climate

change. See www.green-wave.co.uk.
