Friends of the Earth

Friends of the Earth has launched a legal challenge against the government’s decision to approve a third runway at Heathrow Airport, claiming it is unlawful because it fails to address the UK’s climate change obligations.

Research published by Friends of the Earth has suggested that one well would need to be drilled and fracked every day for 15 years to produce enough gas to halve the amount imported to the UK.

At least 75 per cent of the UK’s electricity should come from renewable sources by 2030, says the author of a new report.

Environmental campaigners have lost their High Court action against a decision to allow fracking to take place in North Yorkshire.
