Petition Action

If the Government wants us to set an example and demonstrate the way to Net Zero

Petition Details

All members of:
The Climate Change Committee
The House of Commons
The House of Lords
Senior Members of the Civil Service
Must at their own expense:
Have their houses insulated to a minimum EPC B standard
Replace gas with Heat Pumps and Electric Cookers
Drive only Electric Vehicles

Additional Information

The UK governments say they wish the UK to set an example to the world by achieving Net Zero. To do this, politicians need to show that they are all committed to it by following the actions that are being proposed in the Carbon Budget.
If they expect the public to make the proposed changes at their own expense, then they also must do likewise.
The Houses of Parliament and Whitehall should show of how Net Zero can be achieved with heat pumps instead of using gas, and car chargers in the garages.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can only accept petitions about things the Government or Parliament are directly responsible for.
