Seek to rejoin the European Environment Agency

Closed 47 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the Government to seek to rejoin the European Environment Agency (EEA), so that up to date UK environmental information is published alongside that of EU nations, in a clear, transparent and responsible way.
EEA environmental data no longer covers the UK, and we believe this has resulted in a reduction in the accessibility of transparent environmental information relating to the UK.

We believe the UK's membership of the EEA would mean better access to up to date UK environmental information, which is needed so the public can see how bad the climate and environmental situation is regarding pollution and the spread of various organisms throughout Europe, for example anopheles mosquitoes.
