Labour's Green New Deal Explained

Labour’s manifesto for real change is, as expected, full of positive and forward-thinking policies that will tackle the current climate crisis head on and protect our environment, while boosting our economy and taking our historical responsibility to the global south into account. 

So full is the manifesto, that it can actually be hard to take in all the green policy goodness. If, like many people, the climate emergency is at the top of your agenda, it is important that you know what Labour is offering, and that you are able to take these brilliant policies out on the Labour doorstep and speak to people as many people as possible in your communities about them. To that end, we have scoured the manifesto for you, pulled out as many green policies as possible, and compiled them into what is hopefully a few spirit-lifting and easily digestible chunks.

Labour’s Green Industrial Revolution will create one million green jobs and 886,000 climate apprenticeships in the transition to a low carbon economy. This will be supported by the introduction of a National Education Service, providing cradle-to-grave education for all, free at the point of use, which will help people to reskill for the new, low-carbon economy we need to be working towards.
