Stop the Whitehaven Coal Mine project
Rejected

What the petition asks
This proposal is a complete backwards step of the “green new deal”. If this coal mine goes ahead, it will wreck havoc on the climate. The government must stick to their promises. We are supposed to be “leading the way” to net-zero and set a good example. This is an embarrassment for Britain.
