What the petition asks
A 2021 study suggests that the UK’s home gas boilers emit twice as much CO₂ as all UK power stations.
To mitigate catastrophic damage to the environment through burning fossil fuels, we want the Government to disallow installation of gas boilers in new builds for human habitation effective immediately.
