What the petition asks
The UK Government has set very ambitious Carbon cut goals, so in order to ensure that these goals are reached or even exceeded, a price on greenhouse gases emitted over a certain amount (of C02e) should be instated. This would help reduce the emissions of factories and companies in the UK.
With Wind power becoming cheaper than nuclear and hydroelectric looking like the future of energy, companies should be looking to more sustainable energy sources to not only help improve the environment but to improve their revenue.
