What the petition asks

In a catastrophic move, the new Pm in her cabinate reshuffle has abolished the department of energy and climate change In a desperate bid to remove all traces of Cameron's government. This decision to remove such a vital department is catastrophic.
Climate change is happening and it is a very serious threat to our survival as a whole on planet earth, there is overwhelming evidence from scientists and environmentalists that suggest human energy consumption is the majority of blame and we now have a responsibility to reduce that impact. Teresa may's new government is essentially rejecting the claim that climate change exists by ignoring the vital need for a department of energy and climate change. This needs to be amended.
