Make polluters pay

The biggest climate polluters must foot the bill for a better future

  • The biggest emitters of pollution are being let off the hook for the climate damage they’re causing to communities around the world.
  • Fairly taxing them last year could have raised an extra £23 billion to combat the climate crisis.
  • We need action now. This would create enough funding to support us all – in the UK and across the world.
